    nate and suzy,

    Even if you can't get the 150, you're both still doing awesome!

    You are awesome!

    Wanna give me some of your miles? Need to update my miles, but begining to think there is no way I am going to make 150. Especially if I want to be able to back off a bit a few days before race day. Will still be pulling for all of you!

    Now sitting at 149.6 for July. No, I wasn't interested in adding .4 on to my 20 this morning.

    OMG, I am going to sleep tonight.

    18 miles today - a fair amount of walking, and a couple short breaks, but amazing non the less. I love my body.

    8 today, plan for an easy 5/6 tomorrow, then running with the trail group on Wednesday to do a practice run of the long course for the race, 10.5. That should put me at 101. Then a rest day, an easy run and a long run over the weekend, should be into the 120's. That should allow me to taper a bit before the race and still make 150 if everything goes right. Fingers crossed.

    Good job ladies, we are all staying consistent and close :-)

    Sitting at 205 for the month right now. A rare July with 5 Saturdays and Sundays should make for a big month.

    Just reached 120, not sure how the rest of the week is going to play out.

    An ankle surgery a couple years back left me with a hip out of alignment. When I started upping my milage, it the outward rotation on my foot/leg was stressing my hip flexor. Have started seeing a great sports therapist, who uses multiple modalities as well as chiropractic work. He told me to keep running, but my body has told me to back off a little bit this past week. It is strange relearning how to run and walk now that things are balanced. Working to build strength in muscles that were not being utilized - had no idea how much I was using my other leg to pull me forward. Nor how much I was landing on the outside of my foot. The process is an interesting for sure - luckily the hip flexor doesn't hurt when it is aligned, just need to make sure I don't get out to far and get fatigued, because that is when the muscles start wanting to revert to their old structure.
