My reality is I'm feeling more like a runner these days! Only missed one day the past 6 weeks. Thinking about making a push for 3000 miles for the year but I'll need to avg nearly 9mi/day for the next 3 weeks. I've done that for most of the year but for some reason that seems like a lot right now. Guess it's not really important and it wouldn't matter to anyone but me! But I sure would hate to end up with 2999... This would be my 4th straight year over 3k and I would kind of hate to blow my streak just because I got lazy...

How's everyone else's year ending up?

Looking forward to the Seattle results tomorrow...Wish I was there.

Good to know you're feeling more like your old self. I know exactly how you feel about long runs. Since my knee injury this summer, anything over 9 miles just sounds looong, and yet I routinely was running 14-16 mile runs without the blink of an eye prior to that. Coming back this last time has been harder. Certainly don't blow your streak because of laziness, but also don't try to force your streak if it means you might end up injured again. Tough call. Getting in 3k-miles for four years straight would be pretty impressive, though....actually reaching 3k in any year is pretty awesome...I'm happy to hit 2k, which I don't think I'll quite reach this year.

I'm with you on wishing the best to our comrades in tomorrow's Club XC Nats. Share some good local microbrews afterwards; Pioneer Square is usually pretty hopping (at least it was back in the '80's.)
