Run 100 miles in September!

I'm in.  Going to need some motivation to really push it this month.  Finished August with 224.44 miles.  I want to hit 250 for this month.  Training for a 50 miler that I want to get sub 8:00.

I thought August was intense, I felt all that I did was run, eat, run, work, eat, poop and every now and then sleep.

It's the Fall 50 in Door County Wisconsin.

And really I want to get 7:30.

Hope everyone had a great Holiday weekend.  I'm at 40.5 miles excluding tonight's run.  Had a wedding this weekend so it took a bit out of the training but got in a 16.5 on Saturday and a 18.5 on Sunday.  Monday is a rest day, so looking in decent shape.  Have to see where I do tonights run.  It's supposed to be heavy rain, and I'm getting sick of the rain.  Have a few pair of shoes and they are all starting to smell pretty bad!  Might just run it on the treadmill.  Have a 10-12 miler planned.

Glad that you are safe though.  Hopefully the recovery effort goes as smoothly as possible.

I've been slacking, I didn't do my B2B long runs this weekend.  I just wasn't feeling it on Sunday.  At 86.82 miles. 

Have a marathon in two weeks!

Labor Day weekend was supposed to be a long weekend to get two long runs in but Hurricane Hermine screwed that for me. While we were extremely blessed during the hurricane, others around us were not as fortunate. Now, I'm still running scared in the dark because, while the debris has been mostly removed and the power lines are no longer across the road, we will still be having more issues in the coming months because many of the trees that were left standing are leaning, leaning, leaning and will come down soon. 38.5 miles thus far.

Time to start tapering down?

Taper?  It's just a marathon   But in all honesty no there won't be much of a taper.  I'm using it as a training run, not a race.  I just wanted to get another state checked off the list. 

At 96.8 miles.

Lol thanks, but I haven't really done any biking, and no swimming.  I actually took my bike out instead of a run yesterday.  I needed to mix it up.  I'm behind where I should be to hit 250 miles but that's okay.  I'm feeling a bit burnt out and want to cull it in before it really becomes a problem.  I still should hit 200 miles, I hope.  Sitting at 130.6 right now. 

I think the 50 miler in the Keys would be awesome.  I drove down to Key West a few years ago, it was my first time in the Keys and they were beautiful.  It would be hot though!  I'd be happy to help with what I learned and my training plan.
