    Thanks everyone - I'm resting it, stretching lightly and icing. I'm very grouchy when I can't run. :-1:

    I know what you mean. I have only been running since July and I feel the same when I can't run. It reminds me of a shirt I saw at my local running store -- something like "no one's happy until mama gets her run in". Get better soon! Your daughter is adorable. :)

    I would love to build my endurance up. I'm working on it. I am working my way toward longer runs and to at least get to 6 mph. I'm new though and am just now able to run for 30 min straight. I'm getting there.

    After my (11/30) long run, this is a low-volume week. (I did 16.3 miles on my bike rollers Monday.)

    12/3: 3.25 miles (5.23 km) @ 7:50/mi. 3.25 miles for the month. 46.75 remaining for my goal.

    I did 220 miles in November which I was pleasantly surprised by. I am aiming for 180 miles for December, but if I can do 200 this month I will be happy.

    I am new to this challenge. I am currently working through the C25K program and hoping to get up to 15 miles this month (I hope that is a realistic goal :smile:)

    Did my first December run today--it was W4D3 in the program.

    Hi people. I'm looking forward to participating in the "December Running Challenge". But then I have an issue. I'm so used to wearing orthopedic shoes right from my college days when my RMT at Toronto ( Physiomed massage therapists) advised me to wear one due to "athletes foot". Even though I've got rid of the athletes foot, I still wear the orthopedic shoe. So I guess I,m in .

    It's easy to make running plans when you put them together on Excel. It's harder when you start running and have to execute the plan and realized you were a little too aggressive. But, I'm making progress. 2 miles this morning. Makes 3 for the month. 3/58
