    If I could actually manage to stick to a schedule in my personal life I would go back to taekwondo...

    If I could afford it I would get back into karate, almost any style. It was fun. But alas... it is not meant to be right now.

    I could probably afford it once my older son drops down to part time daycare in September. Not sure - when I did it as a teenager my dojang was run as a non-profit so rates were pretty low (my church Pastor ran it as basically a side outreach program).

    @bride001 sounds like you are talking yourself into the 10k. If doing gives you the flexibility to complete some bucket list races, by all means opt for the 10k. As you said, you have already done 3 HMs at that venue. Branching out would be much more worthwhile and satisfying. Good Luck!

    5/1: ST, 1 mile dreadmill
    5/2: 3.7 miles

    Total: 4.7/70

    Upcoming races:
    Wineglass Marathon 9/30

    I took today off work so that roofers could do some work at the house. After they left, I went out for a run, even though it was supposed to be my rest day. I go on-call at work tomorrow, so I may miss a run later this week and figured I’d squeeze one in. It is getting warm here - 81 already when I ran earlier today.

    @midwesterner85 - I can't believe you gained 10lbs that quickly even if it is water. I hope you are ok and feeling better!

    I am reading Robin Arzon's book 'Shut Up and Run' and came across this... Thought you all might enjoy it for when your motivation is flagging!

    I agree @midwesterner85 . I hope whatever is going on with you is answered soon. And I complain about PMS gain, yikes!

    @shanaber I may look at that book! Love the inspiration. I put a "Do Epic Sh1t" post it on DD's bathroom mirror.

    So I have a fun dilemma. Wear a device on each wrist or retire my Fitbit that I've only had since August?

    I love(d) my 620. But I've never worn it since getting the Fenix. So? One for runs? One for everyday?
