Well we haven't reached our goal yet..if that tells you anything.  You tell me yours and I'll tell you ours.    although we have one person left to post and she will probably bring us up to meet.

 

Ok ...660.69

 

 

We are at 788 - but we have (at least) one runner that posts all of his mileage at once and usually waits until Tuesday or Wednesday of the next week.  I am not sure why.

Better get your team to put in their miles for this week! 

And all I notice in the picture is a bunch new looking clean shoes...what's up with that?!?

We wait for everyone at a intersection  and when they arrive, they all stop and talked like it's time to take a break.  Umm no we have been waiting for 10 minutes..your break is that pace.    it does stress me out when I have a lot of stuff to do.  I would prefer if the group would break into two.  But then I lost my running partner to the group and I get bored running too many longs alone...well with Earl.   Plus there are some folks in the group that I really really like.   Earl was happy, except when Jax was in the lead. 

 

I run to get away from stress.  That would have driven me mad.

 

I ran a few 20 milers with a marathon group in 2003 (we were all training for Chicago) and some of them would stash water along the way.  I ran with a fuel belt and bottles.  They would stop for close to 15 minutes to drink and pee and talk.  By that time I had cooled down and we had 10 miles left.  I ended up making an excuse about doing my long runs on Tuesday's when they couldn't do it. I still like to do my long runs on Tuesday.

 

Hope Earl had a good run.

I feel qualified to comment on the first picture as I have a degree in wildlife biology- looks like several cougar tracks in the making!  

we watched the Longmire series; it's pretty good- a little hokey some times, but keeps you coming back
