Total Distance
16.90

9.6 mile loop up to the overpass. Hamstring is pretty sore today. Nice and crisp out this morning. 

7.3 mile loop up the trail and around GS this evening. I've had a very long and busy day and this run was the last thing I wanted to do. The first 4 miles felt like pooh and then I started to loosen up a little. Now its off to do baptisms for the dead with the young men or man because only one can come tonight.  

Today I reached two milestones. I hit 4,000+ miles for the year and also passed my 2007 total of 4,015. I guess I'll celebrate with one more good piece of sourdough bread and butter.

Seems like those hammy blow outs take the longest to recover. Man, you are putting up some great miles for having one though. Maybe it's only mental? Just kidding.

Good job piling up the miles. Come run on Saturday. It will feel good on the hammy. I hope you dont know about hydroxycut from experience.

Robert- Thanks, I with this stupid thing was mental.

Greg- Good luck tomorrow maybe I'll swing by and see you guys over there. Racing for me right now would be murder.

Thanks for the advice. I really didn't train as well as I should have. The 50K I did for my school for the LAF fundraising was fine but I only did two 18 milers before that. I didn't put in enough miles. The Queensborough Bridge was a beast.

Good job hon. I'm way proud of you for doing so many miles this year, especially with all the issues you had. I sure wish you would have taken care of that tooth a lot earlier since Dent said it would have made such a big difference. Oh well! Now it's gone! Miss you and the girls...see you tomorrow!

That is some serious mileage!

4000 miles... wow.
