Added 4 miles yesterday. I was looking forward to a Saturday I could get out with my husband, but the thunderstorms are almost here, so it might not happen. I hope they clear out by late afternoon.
April total 67 miles.
Good Luck to Everyone who has a race this weekend. Have a Wonderful Time!!!0 -
Got in 13 miles on ex bike yesterday morning before work & again this morning to hit a personal goal of ""500"" (actually is 502 but I don't think I've ever hit 500. Next month I will keep my miles low & add in weight training. I am losing muscle mass & that's NOT good.

@vhuber -- this is my problem as well. I have problems with changing the mindset that I need to burn calories through miles, cardio and have lost muscle mass as well. Need to shift the focus to weights and strength training and maybe my record breaking plateau will end.
That being said, adding 5 miles today

MFP Giro d'Italia Challenge is starting up May 6th though May 29th. If anyone here is interested in a fun, challenge that follows the pro stagerace, there a few spots left before teams are formed. All you need is a bike, Strava account and the desire to ride on a virtual team on the days that the Giro ride. You can ride as many or as few miles as you want on outdoor rides. Sorry but indoor stationary or trainers won't count. There are 3 rest days built into the challenge. This is my second year doing the Grand Tour challenges. Go here and ask questions and read the info. It really is a fun activity and a real motivator. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10376932/2016-mfp-grand-tour-challenge-signup-and-discussion-thread/p1

I am right there with both of you gals. I dropped 12 training for this half but did not get weight training in much this winter due to work and my dad's health. I am going to work on increasing speed, my cycling and weight training.0 -

Awesome job on your new PR! Time to celebrate girl. One of my running club pacers told me today to hang with her and she will get me a PR. The mind is willing but the body is holding together on a roll of KT tape...lol.0 -

Too rainy and grey yesterday to get outside. Plus, my body must be fighting something off. I sat down yesterday to watch a ball game and the next thing I remember is waking up 2 hours later. I'm feeling a little better this morning and I see a few breaks in the clouds, so maybe I can start May off better than I ended April.
1 mile yesterday for a total of 68 miles in April.
Now, On to May!!!!0 -

I'm there too. I'm taking a break from distance running and focusing on weights and speed. Hope the change in the routine brings good things!0 -
