"So, how many miles a week you ride?"

"Oh, 780."
"No no, I mean in a week.....how many miles you ride in a week?"
"780."
"I don't get it."
"780 miles - One week."
"Um, yeah, but that's like 111 miles a day, everyday."
"Yeah."
"What are you trainin' for - RAAM or something??"
"No - Just trainin'. Trainin' for racing."
"Uh, okay."

I heard Gert-Jan Theunisse use to train this way too. Didn't realize, at the time, that Gert-Jan Peavy trained this way as well. I'm gonna have to get one of those 3-hour per week jobs in order to start in on that schedule. Crazy.
