Nice after dinner 4 miles on the trails. Probably would be considered junk miles, but I enjoyed 'em.

What is a junk mile? To me, any time I get to be out moving and feeling good is worth while regardless of how fast or slow.

Ya.. agreed with Aaron - you could'a been pounding some dutch oven ribs and cobble with me at Father-n-sons.. Not the recommended pre-race meal, but it was Gooooood. Good miles - I say!

Ya, I don't really know what a "junk" mile is, but I was talking to someone the other day about how I have been training this year, longer, easy paced runs, with the goal of building aerobic base with little to no speedwork. Their response was "aren't those just junk miles?" I said "ya, probably." Gotta love the mentality of someone on a Runner's World marathon training program. No offence if that applies you.
