Hello blogger world!!!!

Well, on my run tonight I came up with a motivational idea for Leadville training. I am going to start a blog!! It is called Miles to go to Leadville. You see, I plan to run 100 miles in Leadville Colorado this summer. I attempted Leadville 2 years ago but didn't finish so I have to go back and take care of that unfinished business this summer. The Leadville 100 mile foot race is on August 22nd....go here for more details http://www.leadvilletrail100.com/.

Ok...now for my motivational plan. Leadville is 659 miles from my home here near Lawrence Kansas...With around 14 weeks to go before Leadville I need to get some training done. 659 miles of training. The plan...count down the miles to Leadville. Tune in if you would like to see where I am in my progress toward Leadville Colorado. 659 miles until I leave the week before on August 15th. That will be around 50 miles a week. I start the count down on Saturday.
