    i'm not sure i'm going to do this right, but i want to join in...new to running here and a busy working mother of a two year old...

    My goal is a 5k three times a week and the big goal (that I won't count here) is to be able to run a 10k at the end of the month....but i'm just going to count the 5k for now for 37.2 miles for the month....
    Hi veganbettie! I have a 3 yr old (& other children) and I often get up at 4:45 to run. You're in good company here, everyone is so cheerful & supportive.

    Good to know, it's been hard to find a balance and to get rid of those excuses...My little guy wakes up in the morning and cries for me if i'm not there, so i'm a little worried about this...Gotta rely and trust the daddy here!!!

    One question, If you run 210 in November does that drop December to 204?
    Yeah... I just need to get 414 by 12/31. I will knock off a few more of those in the morning to finish off October... I'm still trying to figure out how you convinced me that this was a good idea... lol

    I missed my goal last month and figured I was too burnt to meet my year goal, but a friend has challenged me to grind it out. To hit my goal I need 207 miles in November and another 207 in December. She says she will match me mile for mile... which means we have a lot cold winter running ahead of us...my ticker is for my year goal so I don't lose sight of it...
    I hate cold weather, but I love seeing people accomplish everything they're capable of.
    I'm in for 207 in November. One question, If you run 210 in November does that drop December to 204?
    I'm still aiming for 200 in October so I'll make a ticker tomorrow.

    You two are awesome! I can't imagine running 200 miles in a month even in nice weather!

    I've been running for a few months, but I haven't participated in this challenge yet. I just counted, and in October I went 67km, so I'll try for a doable 70km (~43 miles) this month. I've got my first official 5k on Sunday the 2nd, so that's a good place to start!

    I'm gonna join this thing for the first time.

    Since I'll be recovering from a race on Nov. 2, and November is going to be my "off-season" month before I start marathon training again, I'm gonna go with a goal of 150 miles.

    Good luck to all :)

    I only ran 65 of my 80 mile October goal due to sickness so I'm going for 80 miles again for November. :)

    Oh what's another place to log and chit-chat about running... Gimme 215. Notable runs for November are:

    Indy Monumental Half (1 Nov)
    Pittsburgh EQT 10 Miler (9 Nov)
    ORRRC Turkey Trot 5 Miler (27 Nov)

    No energy for tickers, but I'll post stats weekly :)
