"Even when you have gone as far as you can, and everything hurts, and you are staring at the specter of self-doubt, you can find a bit more strength deep inside you, if you look closely enough." Hal Higdon
Running! If there's any activity happier, more exhilarating, more nourishing to the imagination, I can't think what it might be. Joyce Carol Oates
15 miles starting Sunday and ending Saturday... Yep that easy and you know you can do it! Just log your daily miles, the total miles for the week and encourage your fellow challengers to make their goals, yep it's that easy.
"Run when you can. Walk when you must. Crawl if you have to. Just never give up." Dean Karnazes, the Ultramarathon Man
For the folks returning you know that the 15 miles is not the main goal. The main goal is just to get up and get moving, if you don't meet it that's fine and you surpass it, well that just freaking rocks.
For new comers the preferred method of posting miles would be:
Sunday-miles-what you did Monday-miles-what you did Tuesday-miles-what you did So on and so forth, posted daily or when the miles occur...
Total- Running total for the week thus far
As always this is not set in stone, if you post every other day or whatever fits into your schedule, but please try to stay close to the above format.
For those folks that don't do miles:

for conversion to be made easy (Thanks Nonafit)
Now let's get moving folks
Find your limits and exceed them.

I shared it in the main thread but I must share it here too. Thanks to Reese and Bregalad5 knowingly or unknowingly dragged me into the world of running. I did other stuff too. But 90% of the time is run, walk or crawl. That's how it will be (at least for a long while)
So Reese and Bregalad5 both of you had inspired more than you can ever know! :drinker:0 -

Total ~ 9 miles0 -
Sun: 6.35mi Run ~ Plaza 10K Time 1:03:57.3. Age pos: 83 of 174(F). Gender pos: 656 of 1450 (Sah weet!). Finish Pos: 1248 of 2289. Changed my RK to tell me my pace at every .25mi... seemed to help me manage to keep my pace fairly even... between that and the fairly flat course... I shaved nearly 5mins from my HHR 10K time! 10:11min/mi., 5.89mph avg. (My only "walk" breaks were the short time it took me to grab water and toss it back at the 2 aid stations) :happy:0
