100,000 miles!? Holy running shoes!! That's like ten miles a day for thirty years! ..with no days off.
You certainly have my respect and admiration.
Hi Megan:
Don't worry about your mileage being a little less than you had hoped for this week. Keep plugging away and we will get you there. Remember we have plenty of time. Don't stress about missing one run in a week. Your plan for next week looks great. Be careful on the treadmill, I think I mentioned before that you should use a minor incline (.5 - 1%). Also, don't trust the read-out on a treadmill they are notoriously inaccurate. Go with how you feel, don't be a slave to what the treadmill says.
Have a great week!

Great to hear that it doesn't hurt. Running should be fun, freeing, enjoyable....not something that has to be tolerated. I still find that after 100,000 miles of running that some days making that first step out the door isn't all that easy. Once I'm out the door I can't remember why I was dragging.
Keep on keepin' on.....
