I did get out last night for a short 3 miler (29:17), and I even managed to fit it in between showers, so I didn't get rained on at all. But it was WINDY! So, with that run, my mileage for November was 90.5. Shucks. If I had actually done an 8 miler yesterday, I would have tied my mileage for January, which was my year's highest mileage in a month (95 miles).
Total mileage for the year is 746, and I don't think I'll have a problem getting 54 miles in during December to round out the year around 800 miles. Originally, at the beginning of 2008, I had kinda thought I could aim for 1,000, but incredibly low mileage in June and July prevented that from happening. So, I suppose it will have to remain a goal for 2009.
Always something to aim for.
Anyway, it is still cloudy and blustery today, and it's Monday, after a 4 day weekend, so...yeah...I SO have a "case of the Mondays"!

800 in '08 ain't too shabby, but 1000 in '09 is totally doable!
Great job on your yearly mileage...and good luck with all that grading..sheesh! I used to think wistfully that teaching was the way to go...summers off, etc., until, that is, I taught biology labs in grad school and realized teaching is a job with no end...a job with homework! I give you credit!
I can't imagine doing 1000 miles in a year, that's a great goal!
90.5? Just damn. That IS amazing. Nicely done!!!
800 is a nice number! Actually now that I look at my year to date numbers we're really close (I've got 742) I think I might just join you in the 800 quest.
Very nice, and great goal for 2009.
I can't wait for today to be done! Great job on the mileage. You can definitely hit 800 for the year.
i have a serious case of the mondays too!!
you can totally hit 800 for 08!!
We're having a gloomy day here with wet snow and lots of BLAH. I'm also having a case of the Mondays. Poop.
Awesome mileage for the eek, month & year (so far)!
You'll nail 800, no problem. 1,000 is proving to be more difficult than I thought it'd be. Oh well.
Great mileage!!! My November running miles sucked. :<(
I've run 1000 miles in my head. Does that count for anything?
I think that's really good for November! And there's more to take note of than just number of miles. Think of those back-to-back HMs! Impressive stuff. :-)
I was sooooooooo hoping for 1000 this year, but NOPE. I guess it's a good goal for 2009.
800 miles is still GREAT!!
800 miles is awesome! Those back to back halfs really helped your numbers.
November was a pretty low month for me, so I'm going to have to rock December to make my goal.
wow that is a lot of miles. could start calling your forest gump, during his running years ;-)
I hope you hit 800. You can totally do it.
You'll hit your goal! That's nothing compared to what you've already done! 1000 in '09! How great. I am going to shoot for half of that. :)
Go for it jess and round up that number. At least you will be insome cooler weather in Dec and that should help. Even though the cold freaks me out, I feel like a fish outta water.
90.5 is a big ol number for a month. I thinkg that is like my quaterly number.
Only 56 miles between you and 800! Go for it!
