Still hanging in there, though I've really lost the blogging motivation as of late. Here's where I'm at:
8 weeks out, 10/5-10/11
Mo: 11 miles easy
Tu: 20 miles, 6:57 pace
We: 10 miles easy
We: 6 miles easy
Th: 14 miles w/6 at 6:00 pace on rollers
Fr: 12 miles easy
Fr: 4 miles easy
Sa: 9 miles easy
Su: 14 miles w/10 mile race in 57:32 (5:45 pace)
100 miles in 9 runs
All in all a good week of training given the recovery from the 8K race last weekend and the race today. Goals included a 20 miler, a medium-long run with marathon pace at the end and a solid race effort. Two out of three ain't bad.

Rolling along alright. I assume rollers are rolling hills and not roller blades ;-) Good luck!
Looks like 3 out of 3 to me Mike. Which is the 3rd one? The 57:32 looks solid enough.
Yes Mike, you are correct. I put the leg warmers and blades away years ago.
Ewen, I would have liked to have been able to run 5:40 pace at the race, as most tables would put my current marathon equivalent effort at 2:41 or slower using this data. Still, since it was at the end of a week with pretty good volume (and one week after an 8K), I shouldn't complain.
Thanks for the comments.
Thanks Mike. If the 20 miler had been on the Monday and 14 Wednesday... but then there was the 8k race.
You might have run 55-6 fresh so I think you're traveling pretty well.
