    I am thinking abou starting a November thread early (so we can start setting up tickers. spreadsheet etc) -

    IS anyone interested to continue in November? any suggestions on improvements? [feel free to message me your suggestions if you prefer to do that rather than posting, here?).

    6 miler today....not too sure about this leg soreness, no more pain, but still some lingering tenderness....might have to take a couple more weeks off...I'll try again Sunday, maybe 6-8 miles to see how it feels and get my 100 for the month...

    We are almost done! AND great progress on the final 'lap' ALL - wohoooo

    I am going try to get another checkpoint later on today!

    I just did a 5K race this morning, and was the 1st Master Woman runner Yay! Small local race, but I love it anyway! Then I did another 1M to the lactic acid out of my legs... BUT I re-injured my heel OUCH! So I have to get back on the ARC/elliptical again. I am OK with that though - I sweat more and work harder for the same distance on the road... without the pouding on my legs. STILL prefer running (: but what can you do.

    5 more miles to go - I may be able to get another 4M done on the ARC today!

    I have posted a new fresh thread for November to keep up motivated next month too - since we have different running milage challenges, I made it X Miles in November :bigsmile: hope anyone will join - it will be fun - and a bit cold, but we can do it! :glasses:

    Here is the November thread;

    Halloween Half Marathon today at Ft. Desoto on St. Pete Beach. Beautiul morning just a little windy, Great run and fun crowd!

    74.1 total miles for the month, a little short but great considering I have only been running again since August after having brain surgery in April of this year.
    Love to run!
    Congratulations to everyone!!

    OH MY! running the half is a HUGE accomplishment! WOW! Congrats - totally jealous - I am trying for a half in March, can't wait to be in shape for that! Great finish - for the goal too, that half stepped up the milage!

    Felt good to run today. Due to a family emergency, I hadn't been able to get out and run for 6 days. I am probably not going to make the 100 mile goal this month, and I am OK with that. I am going to do what I can do and have fun trying :) Thanks for keeping track of us - LOove the spreadsheet!

    Hope you are doing well, and to see you in November....
