Ok,
So way back last December I decided that I wanted to try and get 4000 miles this year. I know it isn't that much compared to some folks here, but hey, I've got a 9-5 and only started last year. So far I've gotten just over 2000 and it looks like I'm on track for just short of 3500 miles. I don't really see me making up the extra 500 in the 2.5 months of predictable riding I've got left this year.
SO, should I keep my 4000 mile goal, knowing I'm going to miss it for the year, or drop back and punt and try to hit the more realistic goal of 3500 (I'd still have to pick up the pace to make that number). If I do change my goals, am I selling myself short?
What do you think?

BTW, I'm doing my first century Saturday....
