    2021 - MYA$$ - Apr - 100

    1st: 4.04 miles running - MTD 4.04
    2nd: 6.63 miles - MTD 10.67
    3rd: 4.64 miles, 3.1m running, 1.52m walking - MTD 15.32

    A good start to my running month - helped by the slightly warmer weather. Ran in capris and a t-shirt :D I’m taking part in a challenge and my stretch target is to run 52.4m this month :)

    @sussexbythesea - I hope you’re ok.

    I did a walk and a run today, putting me at 16/75. I'm trying to get ahead of my goal because tomorrow I'm unlikely to get any miles. I'm scheduled for my second vaccine dose (hurray) but I have to drive most of the day to get to the appointment (worth it and what am I doing anyway?). Did I tell you I've already booked my flights to go see my 93 year old mother for the first time in 13 months?

    My husband and I are spending a very quiet Easter. We bought a tiny ham that we are cooking. But soon I'll be able to see my sons and the rest of my family!

    Hope you are all having a wonderful day.

    @ Leanz:Here is a good article about zero drop shoes. https://www.wellandgood.com/zero-drop-shoes/
    I know that for me being older, I found being bare foot, I was suffering foot problems such as arthritis in the ankles and Plantar Fasciitis. Also, I know that if running form is incorrect, there can be more issues. I went to a three way flexible orthotic called Protalus that actually alleviated some of my pain issues.

    I sent home the dog I was watching the past 12 days. Going to miss Ruby girl.

    @clepant thanks for your thoughts. The stiff arch in shoes really makes my foot sore. I will have to back off running and work hard on my form. Running keeps me sane so see how that goes 😳

    @sufferlandrian ouch hope you and the bike are ok

    @Leanz: that is why I ended up with Protalus inserts. They have a three way give that is not like typical arches. I know what you mean about running keeping you sane. I totally get it.

    @Dean:Not again!
