Running Totals for 12 Aug 09
With 15 running days left here at Bagram I am slowly creeping towards my goal of 700 miles before I leave. I know it's not that important that I reach the 700 if it means I could injure myself but as long as I think my body is up to it I will strive to break that goal. Now I just have to convince my body that it can do it. I guess we will see. Today's run, my legs felt a bit sluggish. I know they are overtrained at the moment but every other run besides my long day I take it pretty easy during my runs. I just need to take it one day at a time and see what I can do. Today I ran 6.54 miles, burned 1,150 calories, and I ran for 65 minutes. I hope everyone is doing good. Until next time...

How close are you to 700 miles? If you stay on track is it doable? I think I will have about 500 miles in the same amount of time. I ran 7.01 miles in 75 minutes and burned 1222 calories. Last week with all that exercise I did I only lost 1 pound. Shows you that you have to eat right. love ya dad
I think that with a few two a days I will be able to accomplish my 700miles. I hear ya about eating right and I look forward to getting back home so I can chose what I put in my mouth. I think that I will do my normal run in the early morning and then when I get off work I will go back to the gym and walk a couple extra miles so bump up my totals to make up for the two days I won't be able to run at the end of my time here. I should be able to get it done as long as I get my last two long runs in. Love ya.
