Anyone want to pace me in the last 50m of a 100m?

Monthly "goal" time again. I think I fell just (or a lot) short on several of these, but being more mobile meant a bit less time for running, and spending time with a new person too. Not complaining. A work deadline kept me from taking any time, too. Not a great month making my specific goals, but I did get about the volume I wanted. It's hard without any specific event to train for.

- 50 hours logged. 47. Well, 28 seconds shy. The lowest month of the last four. In past logging, I'd only ever had 4 months with this volume. Now it's every month. And no injuries! New goal: 500h this year. On pace for that even with the slower start to the year pre-covid.
- 200 miles of running. 174. So, nope.
- 60 minutes around the lake. Didn't do it again.
- 12km D+. 11300. But I'm past 80k for the year, so 100k and a new PR is definitely happening barring injury.
- Three proper bounding sessions. Nope
- 2250 push up and sit ups. Fell off of this.
+ A long trail run with mountains. A Presi Traverse and a Wildcat-Carter-Moriah traverse, so yeah.
- Ride bikes. Didn't.
- 250 pull ups. Fell way off of this.
- 100 miles of rollerskiing. Only made 69
+ DIYgoat. !!!

So this month I am probably going to also be very mobile in my living situation, which won't be great for training volume, but then I have more time and will probably take a couple of days off here and there, which will be.

Update! This evening a friend texted that there were 5 slots in the Midstate 100 miler. Registration deadline: midnight. TAKE MY MONIES! In a week. I think I have the volume for that. We'll see. Saner than a solo 100m in the Maine woods.

Fewer goals, so I can't as easily forget them.

* 50 hours logged. Or at least 47.
* 200 miles running. Other new goal is 2000 annual miles. I'm at 1554, so less than 150/month, but I'd like to get that mostly done this month so I can carpe ski season. Should be easy with the 100 now baked in.
* 12km D+, but not really focused on it given that will put me over 90k.
* 2000 push ups, and not falling off.
* 100 miles of rollerskiing

Down to Blue Hills for some trails. It was windy yesterday, apparently, given how many trees were down across the trail. Not a lot of people out. Nice day, and pretty dry.

Short run between meetings. Nice day once the rain stopped.

Went to bring up compost, ran around lake, took down compost container.

I'm going to miss most of my monthly goals this month.

On the other hand, I've never had consecutive 44 hour training months until this year. September will be my 4th in a row.

Chesterville roll.

5 mi no poles
5 mi dp
5k skate back to the car

then to a meeting, but jumped in the lake (twice!) which is still very refreshing (cold) but definitely felt great. May be the last time of the season, alas.

Trail run day with a mellow run up Cabot in NH.

The color was spectacular.

Short, morning lake run. Nice morning, colors are great!

Afternoon roll sesh after I had been roped in to pulling the docks in (oh that is why my back hurts).

Went to the nearby road, but then also went up and down the hill on the "main" road but that road is not very busy. Pavement is fine, and a nice hill. Fartlek on the Hathaway hills.
