October Running Challenge

Oh my Shanaber, so glad you weren't injured more seriously. FWIW, my mind wanders while running too. I'm forever tripping over things that aren't even there, usually whilst I have an audience to gleefully observe my gracelessness.
Of course! I was near the trail end and there were multiple people there getting ready for a ride or finishing up a run or walk - can never do these things in isolation0 -

Hmmmm
I'm going to jump in where I am.
I'm going to set a very conservative goal of 20 miles in the next 13 days.
I'm new to running, but want to run at least a little every day.
I haven't learned to like it yet.
Still working on that one.0 -

Goal is 31 miles in 31 days. I better get my butt in gear. LOL. Anyone a fan of haunted houses for Halloween? There are two pretty scary ones here in Ohio; the original Mansfield Reformatory has a haunted prison experience each Halloween and there is a haunted Apple Cabin that is great!

He hasn't steered me wrong yet, so I agree with you. I just starting to feel confident I can run the whole HM.
Shanaber - hope you are okay, I fell in the street over my own 2 feet about 2 months ago. I was just thankful it was dark and people didn't see me LOL I had to laugh though because my first thought was to stop my watch until I got up and took inventory of my body before starting to run again! I knew at that minute I was a runner LOL
