Coasting...ok not "coasting" per se...

Aug 20 - Aug 26          Total Mileage: 21.2

Aug 27 - Sept 2            Total Mileage: 18.2

Not all that much new to report over the last two weeks.  Continuing to build on base mileage and trying to make sure that I listen to my body.  My nagging Achilles soreness is back and I am doing all I can to keep it at bay.  I have come to the realization that it is just something that I am going to have to live with. 

I am at that point in the training program where I am finding it really hard to limit my mileage.  I want to extend my shorter runs to 4 or 5 miles, but I know that there is a reason that the training program wants to limit and taper mileage.  I'll just keep plugging along and continue to build on my base.

In other news I have officially became a sensible adult.  I now own a mini van (technically my wife will be driving the mini van) but it is still a very sobering thing to say.  I hate to admit it, but it is really cool and so dang convenient. 

As a Giants fan (beat LA) do you have any idea how cool it is to get a package from 24 Willie Mays Plaza in your mailbox?  My race tag for the SF Giants half arrived.  Just a few weeks to go...
