    I knew I wanted four in today. Didn't get out as soon as I'd like. Decided to futz with the cabling on the bike. But by noon, out the door and was surprisingly easy. Hadn't felt that good running in a while.

    I did 12 miles Saturday, 2 legs at a mountainess (hilly) relay. My second leg had a 8% grade hill for over half a mile! it was tough but I didn't walk, and I feel great!

    I've just done another 2 little elliptical based things this week, while I'm resting up the dodgy shin.

    so 2 x 3 miles, bringing me up to 41.3 miles

    I guess I'm not going to make it to 70 after all, but we'll see. I'm going out for a run in a minute to test my new shoes and to see whether the rest has made a difference.

    Sorry about your shin hoping it will get better !!

    Another great run on a beautiful day - so glad to be back. My friend/new neighbor was doing her 20k run. I didn't think it was a good idea to jump into that distance so quick so I met her at the turnaround. Her sister and my fiancé decided to meet up at 13k to do the last 7. I ended up running the 10k faster than I ever have. I have never run a sub 1 hour 10k. Super excited. I ran another half mile with her so my total today was 6.5 miles. That makes a total of 12 miles - 13 left to go.

    Excellent!! yeah a break can be good sometimes, I took a week of and still felt great at a relay I ran Saturday!!! Congrats below 1 hr is great for a 10K!!!!

    This week I logged 16 Miles. Not as many as I had hoped for but nothing to sneeze at either.
    That should be 64 for the month so far and 11 to go.

    This week
    Sunday 3 miles

    OK I made the corrections, I changed it such that it is a 20 miles for week 2 (Monday 4/9-Sunday 4/15), then added 3 miles for week 3 (Monday 4/16-Sunday 4/22)).

    The total for the month I got is now 40. [is that right?].

    no miles to add... just checking in. i can bend my knee now without hearing the "pop." i may try a short run in the next couple days to see how things feel. i think i may be overcompensating though, because now my hips hurts. arghhhh! i just want to get back out there! :-)

    4/23 3.0 for speed (8:34 Avg. Min/Mi) Yahoo!
    + 3.4 for more distance (9:12 Avg Min/Mi) = 6.4 Miles today!

    thanks for asking, my injuries held up well. I kept a 8:11/mile pace for the first leg and a 9:00/mile pace for the second leg which to me is working real hard. Even with that I felt GREAT. I did not use an ipod I wanted to listen to my body.

    Hip is much better, still a lingering Achilles soreness the day after BUT both are definitely better than they used to be after a race. I ran today - only 3.2 miles and I felt GREAT! I finally see light at the end of a very long tunnel! Yay!

    UGH sorry, that sounds what happened to my hip, you probably should get it checked out. Mine was not bad and I am already recovering. My PT gave me some excellent stretches and exercises that were very effective.
