October 3 (77 miles/week)

AM: 11 miles easy

I got out in the morning from home through campus and the WaDuke trail before apple picking with Valerie in the afternoon. With the Braves clinching the playoffs on the final day of the season, my spirits were high and legs were fresh from the taper. October has proved again to be a fine month to be in North Carolina, as these photos reveal.

My legs feel good. I'm feeling more rested and fit, and I'm down to race weight: 156 at last check, which is lean and mean for me (my driver's license has me at 165). One more week until I try to harvest the summer of the highest mileage of my life on the streets of Chicago.

Yes. Full disclosure--that's just a scan from the tattoo on the small of his back.
