Because I have some extra time on my hands (but, sadly, not for long - my sweet summer vacation ends next week), I wondered how many miles I completed in July. So, after adding up a few numbers, I discovered that, in the last month, I ran 60.3 miles and Adam ran 71.3 (okay, so obviously, he had a few runs where he followed the plan better than I did).
60.3 miles ... I don't even think I put that mileage on my car. Matter of fact, I'm pretty certain I didn't. Then, that made me wonder, if the miles continue to increase, then how many miles am I running in August, September, and October? Sometimes, you shouldn't ask questions that you really don't want the answers to. The numbers aren't pretty. In August, I'm scheduled to run 106 miles, in September the number increases to 146 miles, and then, luckily for me, it scales back down to 105.2 miles in October. In four months, that means I'm going to have to run 417.5 miles.
Running 417.5 miles in four months. That's definitely taking a bit to sink in.
I'm running 391.3 of those miles just so that I can run 26.2 consecutive miles? There is seriously something wrong with those numbers. I'm no running expert, but I'm pretty sure I've been tricked again.
