    8/150 goal

    A very, very, very windy run with my mom this evening! The sand from the dunes were hitting us hard. Like little painful pellets. Ouch!
    Ouch!!
    I had a fair bit of wind today too.... was being flicked and swatted by my ponytail at one point (and that stings!!!) Note to self.....ALWAYS put hair into a bun!!

    I almost always have my hair in a bun/twist. I hate feeling my hair swish on my back for some reason, even in a pony tail. lol

    @karllundy - my mom is awesome! We don't get to run together much as I tend to run in the mornings before work and she is retired and has no desire to wake up that early. ;)

    @ddmom0811 - yes, the sand was sticking everywhere! In retrospect we should have taken a more shielded route instead of the bike/beach trail. Luckily it rarely gets that windy around here.

    @Daisy471 - Beautiful!

    4 miles walk yesterday. I am expieriencing a groin injury. i think i pulled it on my 12 miler last saturday or it could be just from over use as i am training for a full marathon and well i run a lot more than normal. trying to take it easy this week and relax as i have a half coming up a week from sunday. I have never expierenced this kind of injury and would love advice on good streches to really get to that muscle.

    I am finally ready to sign up for one of these monthly challenges again and almost forgot that it was April already. I counted up my planned miles and think 65 should be safe but keep me on track.

    4/2: 6.5 miles

    Why in the world did I choose a sailboat negotiating a horizontal ladder? Good question. I'm on my phone and got impatient, lol ...

    PS - in case anyone's following the stroller saga, I splurged on a (second-hand) Bob today! Super excited to take it out for a spin.

    I'm new to this stuff, but I like to walk 2.5 to 3 miles a day, five days a week. I want to run, but have RAD so I'm taking it real slow. I'm starting at 30 second intervals and walk for 2 minutes between runs.
