It is the warm before the storm. Good luck hitting that 4000 miles. I'm hoping to have two good weeks and hit 2000 for the year. Which is about right I'm half the man you are. I had PR's in every race I ran, yet I felt like 2006 was better for me running wise than 2007. Anyway, I have some new training ideas and plans for 2008 so I'm hoping to pick it up and have a better year.

You'll have a good year in 2008 Dustin. For not feeling like you did much you had a pretty good year in '07. I think the main thing is to get a little more consistent. Some time after January or when it warms up a little you should just set a goal to a least get in 60 miles a week for the rest of the year. Once you do it for 4-5 weeks you'll be set on getting that in and it will do wonders for you. Even if you don't ever do much more than that.

Anyways that kind of worked for me back in 2006 after we ran Boston. I just told myself I'd at least get in 60 and then once that was easy I started doing more, and the consistent miles started to pay off.

43 degrees is shorts weather! Way to run naked!
