    @elise4270 I've never heard of that before, is there a number you can all or email?

    Yes, I sent an email. Hopefully some one checks it. Or I'll phone them.

    Treadmill run today since I didn't wake up early enough to go this morning. Good run overall - at one point I went to scratch my leg and thought, "holy *kitten*, my legs are getting solid!" so that was nice, haha.

    11/01: 6.19
    11/03: 4.7

    11/1 - 2 miles
    11/3 - 3 miles

    5/45 completed

    I'm still suffering from vacation-itis haha. But getting back into running regularly again and back to normal eating habits. My husband made the trader joe's gluten-free pumpkin pancakes after our run. They are so delicious!

    @skippygirlsmom @karef and @ddmom0811 thanks. i cannot agree with you more: they are beautiful and adorable kids :) boy is almost 8 (on Friday) and girl is 4!

    I ran along the lake path today. What a beautiful sunny, 73 degrees day. If it were not for the worry of global warming haunting me today, I would have had such a great fun. But, really, 73 degrees on November 3rd? When was the last time that happened? Probably never! Here are a couple of pictures—by the time i thought of taking some, i had already passed the most scenic spots. Maybe next time.

    11/3 5.27 miles — lake path. here are a couple of pictures!

    Welcome to all the new runners
    @skippygirlsmom awesome picture of Skip floating in the air :)
    @_nikkiwolf_ beautiful picture, i take it you live near to farms?
    @kristinegift so, is there a point in which ache subsides? muscle or any aches really subsides once i start running, by the second mile, but otherwise it’s there. would strength training and more faithful stretching help?
    Welcome back @rogue024
    @ddmom0811 sorry about the car and glad you’re doing fine.
    @moyer566 Good. all feels in order when you’re around :)

    I've lost all moto to run with no training purpose. I'm trying to find my space in running 2x a week.

    That is my only goal- no distance- just run 2x a week.
    (assuming I run 3 miles each time- that's 6 miles a week- 24 miles- so I guess tentatively 25)

    But let's just aim for 2 x a week- no milage.

    November Running Challenge 2015 – 110km
    01/11 – 5k run – 5k total
    02/11 – easy walk
    03/11 – REST DAY
    04/11 – 5k run – 10k total

    Great run today! Wanted to keep going though ran into my sister and her little ones at the park so stopped just at 5k. Arches still tender, though I think the inserts from my Brooks helped as I was expecting much worse! Just beat the rain too!

    @snha Usually my aches will go away after either a day of walking around (I walk a mile to class/work Mon-Fri mornigs) or after 3-4 miles of a slow run. But if you're feeling aches that don't subside when you aren't running, you can try some stretching or just ease back the running for a bit. I'm always suspicious of any aches that don't go away on their own by the end of the day.

    I did the same thing after the HM. It was a nice break.
