100+ miles/week

After running 100+ miles/week for 14 consecutive weeks which has also included my craziest taper yet (75 miles in 4 days just to have two full days of rest before the Hilton Head Island Marathon where I surprised myself with my fastest time in 5 years and a 2nd place age group finish), I am adding another challenge in addition to finishing the June 2016 Canyon Meadow Marathon. It is to run 100 miles/week for the entire year of 2016. Not an average of 100 miles/week; the challenge is to run at least 100 miles every week (which for me goes from Sunday to Saturday). About 15% of the year is already done. I have several motivations in place including that December 31st is a Saturday; completing this goal sets up for an unprecedented New Year's celebration.
