Wow, August is over already - where did the summer go? And since I was away at the end of July, I figured we'd play catch-up for July miles as well. So post your July and August running mileage, and any PRs - race times, most miles in a week or month, longest run, or whatever. I'll tally them up in a few days and figure out some awesome awards. Thanks for playing!

Great pic Carolyn, and, as always, thanks for doing this! OK, here we go... July: 371.9 very hot miles with a weekly mileage PR of 97.8 miles. August: 377.0 miles (a monthly PR) YTD: 2431.4 miles Race PRs: 4 mi. 23:38 (7/4/08), half marathon 1:21:47 (8/9/08) and, 20 mi. 2:17:47 (8/24). Whew...it's been a busy couple of months! Big grin

You might say that everything post-surgery is a PR, but for August I have 75 miles walking. July, forget it! Thanks Carolyn. Spareribs

Put me down for 97.6 July miles, 108.1 August miles. No races so no PR's, but the fall racing season starts next weekend - and I expect PR's to start accumulating. Big grin

WildChild - what an awesome picture. You are blessed to live in such a beautiful part of the country. After reading some other's miles for July and August, I'm embarrassed to report mine. But, they are what they are: July 100.6 August 125.1 The good news is I'm only 8 away from 1,000 for the year - a PR for me. Big grin

Thanks for taking everyone's stats, WildChild. Jeanne
