I’m shooting for 60 miles this week all of a sudden, after 42 last week. My legs/brain may change my mind later.
Lunch workout: 6 miles in 55’09″ at a 1% incline on the treadmill (Precor 966i).
Ran to the Rutter Requiem…
It’s not nearly long enough for 6 miles at my pace (under 40 minutes), plus I need some noise-blocking headphones to hear 50% of the work. Crazy that I even attempted to listen to it, but it came up while I was shuffling through the music library.
Queen’s “We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions” and Hurd/Canedo “Mass of Glory” rounded out the listening selections. Church music geekdom on this run.

I slept in and missed my 6 miler. No 60 mile week for me this week.

As for me, I plead insanity.
