Am) Dressed in my jogging suit heading out the door...
Me: I'll be back in few hours.
My wife: Didn't you run long yesterday?
Me: Yes.
My wife: Why are you running long again?
Me: For mileage.
Long pause as my wife looks at me.
Me as I'm taking off my jogging suit: Lets go do something with the boys.
0 miles.
95 miles on the week. 14:20 total time with X-training. ~65 miles at 8000ft altitude or higher. Elevation gain probably 6-7k? Alan Culpepper told me that 100 up here is worth 140 on the flats in Boulder.
Maybe an old dog can learn a new trick? I want mileage but I don't need it. I feel very good today and I need to keep it that way for the next 28 weeks. 14+ hours is solid and I'm racing a 50k in 2 weeks.
What if had had run 89 miles this week...

What race?
ReplyDeleteAnother Red Hot week.
ReplyDeleteI've said it before, I'll say it again, "Jo is a wise woman."
ReplyDeleteLove the back and forth with the wife. I have definitely been there.
ReplyDeleteWay to recover!
95 in six days. Pretty solid, especially off that day you had yesterday.
ReplyDeleteThat said, I might need to sneak in a half dozen tonight.
Amazing how smart those women can be at times. If only we could be smart enough to listen like you did today.
ReplyDeleteGood call! ;-)
ReplyDeleteSolid week for sure!! A day off will do you good.
ReplyDeleteBy the way you beat GZ. He ONLY did 90 miles this week! Ha Ha
ReplyDeleteYou are a wise man!
ReplyDeleteThanks guys. I married a smart lady. 65 miles of the week were at 8000ft or higher altitude. A gazillion feet of climbing.
ReplyDeleteLOL! I love the play by play. I can see Jo's face. Was there an eye roll at all?? Hillarious. Yea- 0 miles for me yesterday as I did a lot of house stuff, but I loved it. Good stuff my friend.
ReplyDeleteyou married well! :)
