    Yeah, we do have lots of idiotic training here. :lol:

    If I have to play that stupid "Who wants to save a million" video, one more time...

    @elise4270 I believe you need to ask @RunTimer where he got that Patch from.

    I really enjoyed this MFP Blog. Especially #9 DECIDE IF YOU’RE TRAINING OR JUST EXERCISING.

    Training = A Goal Driven plan - BQ, 1st 5k, new PB etc.

    " exercising when you should be training or training when all you really need is to exercise can make you miserable and render your workouts ineffective and meandering. So make a decision so you can achieve your goals."

    @Sliedur - W2D1 of C25K? Wow, you found us early in your running career! Don't be intimidated by those us who run a lot more than you do. I may be running 6 days for 50+ mile weeks now, but I started out about 3 weeks behind where you are right now. Marathon runners are made, not born.

    Thanks! I'm doing my best not to be intimidated, and I'm already learning good stuff. Like... don't run multiple days in a row, yet. Of course I already did that, but now I am giving myself a break in between, 'cause at my age, injury is very not good and long lasting. :neutral: Thanks again for the encouragement.

    6/1- REST

    Goal for June. Finish Marathon training well, taper well and run Grandma's well
    Nominal mileage goal: 100

    Today's notes: Rest day on the schedule and I'm totally honoring it. Yesterday's workout was a killer, and it was followed by a day of chasing around my amazing toddler, which added 4 miles of stroller pushing and who knows how many miles of walking around with my little man. Slept in until 0530 today, and already looking forward to nap time!

    Have a runderful day all!

    2017 Races
    6/16- William A Irvin 5k
    6/17- Grandma's Marathon (Full!)
    8/19- Rampage at the Ridge 5k OCR
    9/23- Ely Marathon (full)
    10/21 Wild Duluth 50k
    11/23- TBD 5k Turkey Trot

    6.4 mi Run
    Duration: 1:01:13
    Pace: 9.6 min/mi

    Some ankle discomfort but definite improvement from Monday's run. Thinking of keeping Saturday's long run to under 13.
