This sounds like just the thing to get me back into a routine! I'm shooting for 80 miles.7

Welcome. It's a great group of people here. If you have any running questions, there are some amazingly experienced runners on here. They've taught me a lot.0 -
I am new here (running board) but will be running a few 5 k1's and roped into a half marathon in November. I know I can do this since I ran in high school in 1975. I am going for fifty miles since I am at the end of C25K and may take the 10K part of it.6

I was going to only put in for 250km this month because Banff is 06/17 and I have to reign myself in in the latter part of May in light of that. But I was just promised the time to do my 50k training run next weekend by my husband so I'll put in for 300km again.
Also I have a CDR friend suggesting I run the mountain madness HM in GC on 05/28....contemplating how stupid that is on my part if I do it lol7 -
@JessicaMcB My last 18 mile training run for my 6/17 Marathon is on 05/28, so i would say that, if you don't go all out you might be ok.... oh course with a race name like Mountain Madness I guess all bets are off?
Oh, and I'm still in awe of you run long a 50k training run for a 42k race.... I'm jealous, I know I couldn't run that far.0 -
I feel like @juliet3455 will probably have good input on Mountain Madness since it's in GC but it's supposed to be a rough trail race @MNLittleFinn. But running...lol0

In for 50 miles again. I have planned 2 half marathons this month. So will have 2 tapering weeks.4

In for 150 miles again, I got my HM on the first day, but not certain if I will take it a little easier after that ... I am a lazy git5

100miles/160kms for me4

After another unwanted break from running I'm back on it this month. My goal is to just run 5 times a week, not bothered about distance4
-
My first running challenge! My goal is 50 miles. I usually run 5 times a week, a little over a 5K each time. Hopefully, if I have to unexpectedly miss a day here and there, I'll still make the 50 mile mark!6

@SweetSassyJen welcome to the monthly running challenge. This is a great place for us new runners. The experienced folks are great and always willing to answer questions.1

I'm aiming for 40 miles!3

First time here, and will aim for 50 miles. I live in a very hilly, high altitude area so will be happy to achieve 50 as a new runner!5

@MNLittleFinn - thanks! I have a good feeling too even though it will be a crazy busy month - as will June and July!
@iofred - lazy is the last thing you are when it comes to exercise!
@judithanne013 - Lots of us (me!) started with C25K. I did it in 2014 and became quite addicted. Welcome!
I love it when the 1st falls on a running day for me! Yay tomorrow!

Need shoe help!
Running shoe question... It took me forever to find a running shoe that I was comfortable in. I have old lady feet: a really narrow heel and a bunion (so I need a wide toe box). I finally found a pair that works when coupled with a nifty "heel slip" lacing technique someone showed me.
I have been wearing New Balance 880v6. I am on my forth pair with 450 miles on them and they are now discontinued. New Balance has a 880v7 but I don't know how it's different? I am about to bite the bullet and order a pair. Do the shoe companies usually drastically change the shoe between versions?0
