Still rolling...

Putting together some run mileage while repairing some niggles is part of marathon life, I'm finding out. Nothing special, just trying to string together some 40+ mile run weeks prior to the Fall run race season.  The usual, long run/tempo run/hill reps/lots of other filler runs.  The body is holding up so far.  The thing I'm missing......my run partner.  The Dane has been hampered by an achilles/heel problem of his own since racing Suncoast Tri.  He will hopefully (likely) be back in Dec for our Boston Marathon push so not all is lost!!  I've been doing a lot of lonely run miles without him!  I, however, have no problem pushing myself when solo so all is not lost!  Nearly 15 miles today along the Tri Rock course so I could cheer on some friends (actually, my regular route, they happened to be there!).
So, next up, Turkey Trot 10K.  I've done next to no speed stuff so this will be painful and interesting!  Will plan the rest of the  run race season after that hoping the body holds up!  Plan is Holiday halfathon then Say No To Drugs 10K but will take it as it comes.  Then, big marathon push.  Hope the body cooperates (and I get my run partner back?).
Cheers
