    You've got a pretty conservative goal for the number of miles you're putting in. I'm curious if you're following a plan or taking it as it comes. Looks like some good running going on.

    Do you need to use the ticker to do the running challenge? I use my fitbit and have a daily goal that amounts to a weekly total. I just think I have enough tools in place.

    Is it vital to have a set goal for the month? I have a half marathon in March so I have set myself to run a few times a week and a long run. However my main goal is to run a full marathon without recurring injury issues so building up distance to beyond half distance. I don't really measure the totals that I have done in a week or month. If I was to take a guess I probably run between 100-170km a month

    I can't speak to the challenge "rules" but this thing is meant for you and to motivate you so...

    I would like to comment on your weekly schedule though. You might consider adding, gradually over time, another long run or two in addition to the one weekly long run you do now. Many consider the mid week long run to be key in marathon training and another support in avoiding injury/overtraining. Arthur Lydiard actually prescribed 3 long runs per week and his work is still considered pivotal in the development of training ideas for aerobic sports (and influential to all the big name coaches).

    Had another run last night where it started snowing as we started running. My daughter's face was stinging from the wind and snow so we cut it down to 5 miles from 8. I didn't feel too bad about that as I've been feeling run down from stress at work so a little break was ok.

    2/13: Another treadmill 5K, really getting bored of the treadmill. But not quite safe to run outside just yet. I gotta suck it up for another month or so.

    Just a couple of miles today. Did some circuit training at lunch time for the first time, hadn't considered how tired I was until I started to run!

    Ran 8 times so far right around 54 miles. Potential 13+ long run this weekend should keep me on track for 100 in this short month.

    Keep is staying healthy and injury free. Good luck all.

    Ran 5.3 miles today :smile:

    I would have ran yesterday, only I fell off my bicycle and injured myself :cry: There was black ice on the pavement, which I didn't see and my bike went from under me and landed on top of me. I was so winded, I just sat indoors and nursed my bruises. Really sore neck today. I must have suffered whiplash. Pushed myself to go out today though.
