    @amymoreorless That sounds exhausting. I hope you get a good nights rest and they your hubby gets to feeling better soon. Good luck tomorrow.

    @katharmonic Sounds like a good run this morning. Good luck with the BEAST. Don't you hate it when you tell someone you'll do something if they do and then, they go and do it!!! ;)

    @amirahdaboss yikes!!! That looks like it could have been pretty bad. I hope you recovery quickly. Speaking of car accidents I wonder how @workaholic_nurse is doing.
    @lporter229 yuck! That sounds like a miserable experience, but on the upside, it sounds like a successful run.
    @amymoreorless you sure have a full day. I hope you find some quality "me" time...other than the run.
    @eleanorhawkins all right!!! Glad your run was heavenly!
    @scott6255 nice run, in spite of the wind! I had to deal with strong winds today, but not like that.
    @polskagirl01 Good outcome. I hope you live another bunches and bunches of days.

    I think I need new running shoes. On my run today my right foot, just like exactly what happened when I was running my 5k, fell asleep but not before I felt a twinge in my knee and pain in my shins. My shoe wasn't tied tightly, so that's not the problem. I've run and walked on and off with these shoes, which I got properly fitted for, for over 3 years so it is probably time for a change.

    If the shoes have THREE YEARS of running on them, then, yes, they are highly suspect at this point.

    @lporter229 I'd be fuming. At them and myself. Hugs and hope you are OK now you've (hopefully) warmed up!

    I did a nice gentle 12k today. Wasn't sure how it would go as this is the longest run since my shin splints last month. I know I've actually built up properly so I wasn't worried. It was just a lot of hills when I'm usually running relatively flat lol.

    Felt great now im hungry for all the things! Spending the rest of my Sunday deep cleaning our house ahead of listing it later this week.

    March goal 100km. I achieved 114! Woo hoo!

    My goal for April will be 150km. A bit more than the recommended increase but I'm doing a challenge and that's the goal.

    Well, I wasn't do a large amount of running in them, so I wasn't putting a lot of miles on them on a regular basis. I did get a new pair of Asics today. Sales person thought I should also get some compression socks, but they didn't have the style of sock that I liked, so I'll get them at another store and see how it feels.

    @lporter229 I missed your story before, but that sounds awful and so annoying. I hope you are all warmed up now.

    @7lenny7 sounds like you had a great run. Gravel road running sounds hard though - I'm assuming it was pretty fine gravel? Hope you are stuffing your face with food and beer and being driven around!

    @quilteryoyo sorry you had a hard run. Take it easy! I'm glad the walk/run intervals are helping though.

    Everybody's mentioning being so hungry and wanting to eat everything after running today - same here and I ate a huge amount of food from the Mediterranean restaurant by my house but feel like I could still eat more.

    @amymoreorless great job doing 18 miles two days in a row. You can't see me right now, but I am literally bowing down to you!
