    Twocat - it's just a basic Word table that I use, but if you like, you can send me an e-mail at hollys4874 at yahoo dot com and I'll send you the attachment.

    Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."

          Dark Horse is like some cranky old coach who shows up to bark out orders or trout slaps... but I don't see his schedule...? I guess someone needs to keep us in line... Twocat, thanks for all your table help, but you quickly lose me with talk of macros and such...! Confused

                Hi Gang. I had a pretty fair week, checking in with 45 miles. It broke down like this: Sun - 6 miles - 8:52 pace Tue - 5 miles including a couple short intervals - 8:00 avg pace Wed - 8 miles - 8:23 pace Thu - 6 miles w 4 @ tempo - 7:56 avg pace Sat - 20 miles - 8:21 pace This is a normal week for me and includes an extra day. Normally I don't run Wed but I add it as an easy day 4-5 weeks out from a marathon.

                At the end of the day, be happy with where you are and what you've accomplished.

                  Haven't ventured on the 40-40 for awhile, but I'm hoping to maintain 40 mpw most weeks this season.
