A month ago all I wanted to do was break 5:30. I was pretty sure that was attainable going into the meet and lowered my time goal to sub 5:20 and had it in my head I could run a 5:17. So I was happily surprised to run a 5:14. A good starting point, especially since I had just wrapped up my first 70 miles week the day before. I still have a hard time accepting these are now my time goals, so I just focus on where I was this summer or, even worse, a year ago.
As far as goals go, I hit my Meet of Miles goal and my mileage goal, but still haven't reached 10 straight days of 60 minutes of running. I've come close but real life and Meets of Miles get in the way.
When I have more time I'll post some Meet of Miles pictures.

Nice progress, Dude.
Thanks Los Deets. How for along are you from reaching your running goal? Do you have a percentage of streets run v. not run? Hint: it should add up to 100.
I've been analog on my streets logging. Pink highlighter on paper map, so my guess is around 63.3% complete. Up for a run?
I'd be up for a weekend run. And then with this done I will help you take on the infinitely tougher task of every block in St. Paul.
How do you get to 70 mpw if you're not running an hour every day? Are you doing doubles?
Nevermind, my coffee hadn't kicked in when I wrote my last comment. Of course, some runs are more than an hour.
