    8/16- 1 mile... walked a heck of a lot more!

    8/17- 5.5 miles- wow, trail running can be tough!

    by the way, i bought another pair of shoes and my knees are finally feeling quite a bit better. whew!

    Glad to hear it and glad you caught it before your injury became real bad!!! What shoes do you have now?

    Are walkers allowed, or is this runners only? Just curious-i walk pretty fast and have been doing at least 4 miles a day, working on upping my time and distance right now. I think its too late for me to join this month, but if i were to want to do it in Sept, are walkers allowed?

    Anyone?

    we only count running miles.

    There are a number of groups that count walking miles or any types of miles (e.g., biking, walking, and running), the most popular one here on MFP is the Move your *kitten* Challenge and they also run a spread sheet - it was a group I considered joining myself, but I wanted a group that kept me more accountable with my running, so I joined this group :happy:

    Here is a pointer to the *kitten* challenge:

    i bought another pair of the adidas climacool shoes. the insole only lasts me about three weeks, but i am trying a sport shoe insole in hopes that they will be a better fit for me and add a little extra cushion.

    6 yesterday, 3 today: 16 total.

    8/14: 3 miles
    8/18: 4 miles
    8/19: 8 miles

    Total for the month: 31

    Double check my miles for the month please - I think you have me running way too many miles ... Not that I mind that though :smile:

    Hopefully I can keep on track with school starting back this week! August has been a rough month... I seem to be getting back on track.
