      Had the worst luck the last couple of months XD This time I went over on my ankle! Seemed okay yesterday so going to try a gentle run today :)

      Slow start I'm afraid. If the weather continues like it is here in wintery Northern Scotland, UK, I think I'll need to go to the gym to use the treadmills.......

      6/7 - 7 miles - I'm so proud of this run it was at 10:21 pace, which is fast for me - I was comfortable the whole run :smiley:
      6/8 - 4.4 miles

      33.2 out of 120 miles (86.8 to go)

      I'll fix my ticker later - it says 33.2 on the website but when I post it here it won't update to the 33.2 miles

      @_nikkiwolf_ awesome time for your 5k!
      @skippygirlsmom - you are doing so great on your times! I write the times and dates on the back of the bibs and I have them all attached to one another and hanging. I only did my first 5K in September and can't believe how many I've done already.

      @7lenny7 - No prob! I'm happy someone else is using the app and especially earning for Wounded Warrior Program! They are an amazing organization. Yes, the battery part is unfortunate, but worth it. :)

      @ddmom0811 thanks! Sorry to hear about your ankle. I saw on your news feed your run and I thought to myself, that seems short for you. :cry: take care of yourself.

      @SBRRepeat - That mannequin repurposing is great!
      @skippygirlsmom - I like that bib organizer. I just keep mine tucked away wondering what, if anything I'm going to do with them.
      @emmy15rocks and @ddmom0811 - Hope those ankles are OK.

      Today was supposed to be a rest day but I did not get a run in yesterday so I swapped days and ran today. It will make my weekly mileage last week and this week look weird, but for the month my mileage should be no different.

      6/2 - 4.1 miles
      6/3 - 4 miles (8.1 total)
      6/4 - 4.1 miles (12.2 total)
      6/6 -13.4 miles (25.6 total)
      6/8 - 6 miles (31.6 total)

      Goal 130 miles

      6/02/15 - 6.25 miles
      6/03/15 - 3.3 miles
      6/04/15 - 6 miles
      6/05/15 - 3.55 miles
      6/07/15 - 4 miles worth of my 10k race before it got cancelled due to lightning, and 6 miles on the treadmill to satisfy the training schedule, which does not allow for split workouts.
      6/08/15 - 12 mile long run, logged before I step on the treadmill because I need the extra motivation to make it happen, today.

      The race was going REALLY well, too. I feel robbed of what was on track for a sub-60 10k. My GPS says I had 4 miles done in 38:38 - and I started that fully a minute before the chip timer starting line - so it includes the funnel trudge towards the start. I have signed up for a 5k next Saturday, in which to prove once and for all that I can run a sub-30 5k.

      6/1--3.12 miles
      6/2--Yoga
      6/3--4.58 miles
      6/4--yoga
      6/5--4.5 miles
      6/6--6.12 miles
      6/7--rest
      6/8--3.24 miles
      Now, I have to catch up on my reading. Has anyone ever heard of a runner's low? I saw a question about it on another site. I had never heard of such a thing. This person experienced it after their races. I was wondering if that was an emotional response or something.

      @whatmerunning They have a million different kinds. I keep finding me all over my car LOL the other day I found last year's Cotton Row in back of my SUV and what kills me is that one is worth money in the Fleet Feet store, which is probably why I left it in the car to start with. You buy something and show the bib and you get money off.

      @_nikkiwolf_ - I'm glad you shared your excitement over this race! Marathon, 10K, 1/2K, it's all running! Congrats too on getting under 30min! Very Speedy!!!
      @scoutmomof8 - Welcome! I started with C25K a few years ago and haven't stopped since (unless injured, so try not to get injured) Many blessings! Looking forward to seeing your posts here!
      @SBRRepeat - Lovely photo! Very attractive way to display your sport giftings! Our bike rack is a monster of one- holding 5 bikes- The only way it would work here would be to use it as our coffee-table centerpiece! ;)
      @ddmom0811 - I'm praying for your ankle. Be safe.

      3miles today. 12 planned for tomorrow.

      @skippygirlsmom - Great pace! Aren't there some fun things on Etsy? I got a medal hanger and had them add special brackets to hang on a cubicle wall. I love it!

      @isulo_kura - OUCH! Hope that doesn't feel as sore as it looks!

      All - looks like it was a great weekend! I missed a lot of good stuff. 7 baseball games in 2 days meant no time for "social networking".

      6/1 - 4.0 miles, still a little tender from Saturday's race
      6/2 - 4.25 miles; 8.25/120
      6/3 - 4 miles, indoor track; weights/abs
      6/4 - 4.9 miles, Trek/treadmill - would it kill my Y to put some fans in the cardio room?!?
      6/5 - 4.4 miles, a little humid, but nice!
      6/6 - planned rest day
      6/7 - 8.1 miles, STICKY...summer is here for sure.
      6/8 - unplanned rest day - all that time watching baseball in the sun sucked it out of me.

      I'm back again for another month of running but I've been doing a lot of yoga because all my muscles have been getting really tight and it's been making running really unpleasant. But the yoga has really been helping a whole lot. Especially with the tight hips and calves that I was getting. :smile:

      June 2 - yoga
      June 3 - yoga
      June 4 - yoga and a 10k hike
      June 5 - 5k
      June 8 - 5k and yoga

      Did my long run today 7.3 miles so a total this month so far of 14.3 leaving 60.7 to go.


      Another 4.3 today giving me a total of 18.6 leaving 56.4 left to go for this month.

      Today's run was tough, I'm not going to lie. I had to dig deep not to stop after the first 2 miles and I resented every step today. Still I persevered which is definite progress for me
