November goal: 120

Got through 184 in October, but ramping up my mileage for Disney in January (as the Florida weather cools down), so targeting 220 in November.0

So this is my first month at actually giving it a try, which is ironic because I just completed a marathon in October and am on a trend of decreasing my mileage. I did hit personal highs of 200 and 205 miles in August and September. October has been a little light due to tapering and post race recovery, so I will be finishing in somewhere around 100 miles after tomorrow's run. Going to shoot for a conservative 120 in November. Hopefully it will be more. Now to see if this ticker thing is actually going to work...
Welcome!! And I'm too lazy to do a ticker too!! Glad to hear I'm not the only one...I just add my miles up and include it in my posts!0 -

I'm in for 40 miles this month. I've finally gotten back to regular running but I want to keep the mileage low for now to avoid any reoccurrence of my injury.0

180 BMP for those of us who need a reference or something to listen to. It has also helped me understand the discussion held a few days ago about the difference between cadence, pace, and stride length. Until I heard this I just didn't get it. I do now!0 -

I'm going for 50 miles this month, 10 more than last month. It may be overly ambitious since I'm starting the month with a very bad cold and am not sure I'll even be able to walk around the block today.

11/1: 22 miles
WHEW, IT IS DONE. This is my longest training run to date and my best training season ever. No sidelining injuries, managed to get all my long runs in (1x18, 2x20, 1x22), and my LR pace has dropped almost 1 min/mile since my last training cycle. Though this run was a bit tough, I managed to keep a pretty consistent pace. No signs of cramping which means my fueling strategy should on point for race day. Usually my last long run fills me with doubt and/or dread, but this time it has been a big confidence booster. I'd have added another mile on if I hadn't had to run uphill to do so Now just one more high mileage week before tapering for the last two weeks before Philly on Nov 22!
22/150

Since we are closing in on pie season I've decided to, at least, do some treadmill walking on rest days. I'm hoping to trick myself in to treadmill running.. I also have 2 days a week of traveling to Dallas (not burning any calories on those days sitting for 5 hours).
1-2.65 treadmill walk
2- rehab/travel
2.65/80+

Joined the October forum about a week and a half ago. Fully committed for November! My goal is 30miles. I've been running for about 4 months. Just did a 5k road race today! Connecticut Law Enforcement Memorial Run to be exact. Finished in 32:11!! My goal for my next 5k is 30:00 which is in 3 weeks! Wish me good luck!0

Hi everyone! Hope you all had a wonderful Halloween. My internet hasn't been working so I'm on my phone - I'll catch up on everyone's posts as soon as I can!
I had a great run this morning to start off November. I also want to reset my November target to 75 miles from 60 - that'll push me more.
It was misty but beautiful this morning and the leaves were all over the place. I took this totally cliche picture on my cool down because I loved the colors so much.
I'll get to everyone's posts and update my ticker as soon as my computer is back up. Now off to watch football!

@7lenny7 thanks for the tips.
@virkati i just checked it and you're right it does not load, but then, being a smart-***-techy i looked at the url and saw a few ****** there, i thought, hmm, what could those be, let me try putting "*kitten*" instead of the asterisks and it worked believe it or not this is the URL: http://www.shutupandrun.net/2015/10/my-11-tips-to-having-most-kick-*kitten*-long.html?m=1
