    @MNLittleFinn - I hope the pain goes away soon. We all know exactly what your mind is doing - all of us have done that with the slightest pain. It's far enough away you will be okay.

    Knee felt fine on my short run this morning. Yesterday I determined that it was hurting when I walked while carrying my laptop bag (which also had a huge stack of papers that had been growing and not getting graded). When I switched the bag to the other side, I didn't get the pain. Wondering if all this "balance exercising" I've started is making me so balanced that carrying a heavy load on one side isn't good. Who knows!? In any case thank goodness not one more twinge of pain and ran fine this morning. Just woke up late so only got in 3 miles.

    So I learned my "functional training" exercises yesterday. It's not as much lifting weights as I've been used to -- more of using your own body weight and it's an entire body workout. He said I should do the routine 3 times in a little over an hour. It took me an hour just for him to show me what to do and me get it right. He wants me to come in for a "running routine exercise". But I told him I want to get this routine down first. What I like is while I'm traveling I could easily do most of these. I am still going to do biceps and triceps afterwards with the weights because I like doing those the best.

    1/2 - 40 mile bike ride

    I am a total running novis and patted myself on the back when I hit my first 6.5k yesterday :(

    Am I allowed to join your group? I think it will motivate me massively!!!

    @Skipper111 Welcome, and yes, please join our group!! All of us started running at some point. This time last year, I was very new to running, doing 1 run per week on the dreadmill. Running just became the exercise I enjoyed most so it ended up taking over. Now, I have my 1st marathon next month. :smiley:

    Didn't get a run in yesterday, and was having a hard time figuring where to get a run in today - so had to just get out there this morning and get it done. It was slow and short but it's done. Now that's checked off and on to a major get crap done day. I hope.

    Who are the Cleveland people on here? I'm heading there Sunday-Tuesday for work. I don't think I'll have much time to run but I will be getting a bit of a tour around the area so anywhere I should check out that is great running/hiking if I have a chance?

    @MNLittleFinn Hope you had a great birthday! And of course, I hope your shin recovers quickly.

    @Darwin20 and @Skipper111 Welcome to the group!

    --

    Today's run was a nice long slow one...it actually made me late for work, but seeing as I'm the first one in, no one's going to be any the wiser. Unless they happen to be MFP members that also happen to read this thread. In which case, I wasn't late for work, honest.

    01 - 5.21 miles
    02 - 5.60
    07 - 5.56
    08 - 5.60
    10 - 10.71
    11 - 11.21
    12 - 11.19
    14 - 5.37
    16 - 10.57
    20 - 13.21
    23 - 12.16
    25 - 11.28
    27 - 14.33

    Total: 122.00 / 100

    Thanks so much for the quick response, and the encouragement!

    Brilliant, I am a lone runner so it will be lovely to have somewhere to talk about it and get tips :-D

    1 mile at a time!

    @Katharmonic If you are asking about Cleveland Ohio. I live in that area (about 30 miles West of the City proper). Where will you be? We have some amazing Metro Park trails all around the Cleveland area.

    Thanks all for the birthday wishes and the wishes for my shin to feel better. I skipped my run this morning. My shin was sore last night, a stupid nagging soreness that reaches like a 5-6 in a 1-10 scale, at times, with a little tenderness when I rubbed it, on the top half of my tibia, but it felt like the flesh, not bone that was tender.

    I'm thinking I'll skip tomorrow's long run as well. Since I started my training plan 2 weeks ahead of time, and this is week 2, even skipping running until my Dr. appointments shouldn't put me too far off track, assuming I get an all clear to run.

    I've got 4 and a half months until race day, so hopefully I'll still be able to do this, if I didn't royally mess myself up.

    @Darwin20 and @Skipper111 Welcome to the group!

    We all started out in the same place, so understand what you have already accomplished and the journey ahead of you. I started running when our local swimming pool closed for an extended maintenance cycle. Now I have completed lots of 5 and 10 km events, 3 HM's last year and my 1st HM this year is next week.

    Here are a few links to related pages - a real compilation of great information

    Morning gang!!!

    I have serious doubts about attaining my goal this month... I'll see what I can do on the weekend. I live in Canadaland, so it's cold, freezing, snow and ice everywhere, so I don't run outside at this time of year. There is an indoor track that I've been meaning to explore, maybe I'll be able to get around to it on Sunday morning. :smile:

    Have a great day!

    @skipper111 and @darwin20 welcome welcome. @nats2508 great month, you got out and got it done. We have such a wide range of runners here and that's what makes this group so awesome, whether you run 15 miles or 250 miles all are welcome. (ha ha my Priest says that all time - the all are welcome part).
    @MNLittleFinn relax and you'll be fine just take the time to heal
    @ddmom0811 strange about swapping arms and the knee pain. The functional exercises sounds interesting
    @kristinegift woohoo on discounted race fees!

    Congrats to those who made goal already!!!

    @skippygirlsmom thanks. I'm taking the rest of this week off. I got my 70 for thr month, so now I figure taking off today and tomorrow (skipping a long run...gggrrr) will give some piece of mind.

    On another note, my Dr. Didn't think I need to come see her, she said to see PT first and see if thst helps. I think it's all just stress/excitement for my first full marathon. Maybe intentionally skipping a long run will help me get some perspective

    I lived in west-burb-Cleve and worked downtown for 15 years before moving to MN. My two favorite running locales - both very popular choices - are Rocky River Reservation (on the west side) and the towpath trail in Cuyahoga Valley Nat'l Park (south of the city). A friend of mine owns a local running specialty store on the east side and I'm sure he would have good recommendations if you're looking for routes. Have fun!

    I've been sick all week. Stuffy head, cough, achey, fever, chills . . . ugh! Feeling somewhat better today and anticipating that I'll be back to running this weekend. This sucks! I swear I used to run through crap like this, but anymore when I get a cold it's like every cold I ever had all come back to revisit at once!

    @kristinegift -Nice score on the race discount!
    @Skipper111 - That's the best thing about this group. It has long time runners, people who started running yesterday, and everyone in between. Monthly goals range from 20 miles to 200+. But everyone is encouraging and it's really easy to get sucked in!
    @MNLittleFinn - Hope you get your shin issue sorted out. A little R&R never hurts!

    I have not done my run yet today. Hill repeats are on the schedule. But it is snowing, that nice, big, fluffy kind of snow that is so fun to run in, so I may end up bagging the hill work for a joy run instead. Depends on what is happening out there when I get done with work. In other exciting news, my co-worker and I are going to my favorite Vietnamese pho restaurant for lunch. Pathetic that this is exciting news, I know, but because of my digestive issues, I rarely eat out so it's kind of a big deal to me!

    I skipped my run last night and ate a dozen cookies instead (taper & carbo-load, right?). I've been rolling the calf and I think it will be ready to go tomorrow morning. Now I just need to get my *kitten* to bed at a decent time tonight.

    @lporter229 go for the joy run!!! You can always do hill repeats another day. And pho...love me some pho!!
    @skipper111 congrats on the new distance PR! It's always exciting to break into new territory! You definitely should pat yourself on the back.
    @MNLittleFinn it's far too early to worry about some pain knocking you out of your race. I had bad Achilles strain 5 weeks prior to my race, which limited me to 20 miles in the following 3 weeks, and I was still able to finish well.
    @kristinegift - SCORE!! That's a great price for a marathon!
    @JessicaMcB great job making your goal already!
    @nats2508 your challenge is no less than anyone else's here. You're doing great!
    @Calvin2008Brian hope you get rid of that crud soon!

    On another note, my Dr. Didn't think I need to come see her, she said to see PT first and see if thst helps. I think it's all just stress/excitement for my first full marathon. Maybe intentionally skipping a long run will help me get some perspective

    @MNLittleFinn I agree with you, you are like the first time mom who worries about everything. :smile: I think everyone here who has run a full or even a half would agree everything runs through your mind when you are training for such a big event. Based on miles you have been running you will have no problem with this.

    Asking for suggestions/recommendations from this massive pool of experience here.

    My right leg between the bottom of my calf and my ankle tightened up really bad. It is ok once it warms up but if I sit for awhile it is back to tight. Any thoughts on what the issue might be or recommendations on stretching/drills I could do to help things out?

    I do some stretching and roll everyday, nothing major but some.

    I don't like to comment about injuries or potential injuries, cause I am not a professional in any way and that is what I would suggest if your concerns are warranted enough.

    For me, if I cannot maintain good form or I feel sharp pains while running, I would not run and in extreme cases would seek a professional opinion. Luckily I have not had a personal experience where I felt like I needed a professional check and taking it east for a few days or weeks was all I needed.

    However I did get a 50% discount code for the NJ Marathon, so guess what I'll be running for a third time this April? ;) I needed an April race, so... I signed up for the full for $60 (~$40 off list price!) and will drop down to the HM if I'm not feeling the 26.2. I'll still keep Vermont City and Cleveland as back-up options at the end of May. I'll only do the full at NJM if I really think I have a great chance for a BQ, if not I will try for another HM PR.


    And this being from the woman that swore off marathons from on out only a couple of months ago. Glad you're thinking about that BQ again.

    @Darwin20 and @Skipper111 Welcome to our group from me as well!
    I echo the sentiments that we all started from somewhere. Everyone is welcome here as I stated in my OP on page 1. We have complete novices barely able to do C25K to marathon maniacs.
