    6.2 miles done as I ran my first 10K race today!

    well done! How did it go?

    Was hoping to finish in under 52, but missed my goal - came in at 52:08. Took 3rd place for females in my age group. So, ok, but not spectacular.

    I say that's spectacular. I'm hoping for 55 minutes or at least under an hour. I would love for a 52 minute time.

    SO proud of you! Good job! And I agree with utes09 ... a 52 minute 10K is SPECTACULAR!

    Thanks. These cramps are like nothing I've had before. This is the third day that I can hardly walk. I'll have to go pickup a foam roller.

    i've heard that dill pickle juice works wonders for cramps... don't know if it would work for you but it might be worth a try?

    also make sure you are properly hydrated (before running, really works for my cramps).

    3 miles today, not going to hit my target this month as off to Spain on a 2 week vacation from Saturday and no time to run tomorrow.

    MTD 39 miles.

    Corriander, please keep me on the spread sheet and I will go for 60 miles in August.

    Good luck everyone on reaching your July targets.

    12/07/17 - usually Tuesday track group - we hit the hills this time, did a pretty fun partner workout. Partner 1 sprints 3 pole lengths, while partner 2 jogs easy. After the three pole lengths, Partner 1 slows to and easy jog and Partner 2 sprints to catch up, when they do, partner 2 slows to easy jog, partner 1 sprints again. It works best when people are similar speeds. Repeat.
    We did that one twice for the length of the long hill. Then another similar one and then a steady effort all the way up.

    Mapmyrun ap says almost 5 miles total, but I just urned it on and left it so it may include a bit of pacing/walking. I'll call it an even 4 miles for today.

    Sounds like a GREAT workout!!!

    Managed to get out there before the heat of the day so it was "only" 88F out. Still got a good sweat on though :D

    Saw the momma duck and her two duckies. They are starting to get adult coloring and starting to look like mini adult ducks. Lots of lizards, many teeny tiny ones again. Busy lizards. Saw a lot of doves today, more like startled them into flight, lol.

    Week 3 Total: 14.4 miles
    MTD: 90.4

    88F, UGH Yeah I can't wait for cooler months!
