Congrats to all the 2010 Boston Finishers especially Marathon Maiden who fought thru a tough last month and posted an impressive 3:35. Awesome work! Also to my CPTC teammates who all killed it! Great stuff.
Make room for me in 2011 because I’m coming …-

Observations: Normally, if I see that many negative percentage changes associated with my running I would be disappointed (at least w/ respect to the first 4 categories). However, I’m feeling pretty good about November as (1) October was an off the charts month in terms of mileage and (2) October is not sustainable on a month-to-month basis. After suffering burnout for the first week of November, I decided that the maximum mileage for November would be (drumroll please) … 175 miles. I was also committed to reducing pace. I am very pleased on both fronts. 175 miles per month puts me on track for an annual total of 2,100. That base mileage supports my “3:30 or Death” fall 2010 marathon mission. Also, incorporating intervals or hill repeats once a week seems to have helped from a speed standpoint.
December may hover a bit above 175-miles as I am getting ready for my first half marathon of the 2010 season (January 24th). I just gotta keep it rolling.

Today was one of those days. I had a window to get in a run early this morning, but when I saw the clock at 7:40 am I knew the window closed. My human alarm clocks (kids) actually let me sleep in. Very unusual. Anyway, too much pre-planned family stuff to do today. No sense being upset, because sometimes life does get in the way.
