    Ok here is where I am at::
    1/1-1.25
    1/3-3.30
    1/5-4.50
    1/6-2.25
    1/7-4.58
    1/9-4.00
    1/11-4,60
    1/14-4.54
    1/16-4.71
    1/18-4.73
    1/21-5.06
    1/23-4.15
    1/25-6

    Total: 49.52 Miles LOL had I realized that I was only a half mile out I would have walked it out. I was focusing on getting the 6 miles in. I am increasing my mileage, to get to 12 comfortable. Then I want to decrease the time it takes me to get the miles in. I am working toward a mini marathon in April. Not sure if I am giving myself enough of time, but I am sure trying my hardest. Friend me!

    I've got 46 miles logged for January. This challenge should help me get to 50 before the end of the month. I need the motivation, for sure!

    Hurt my foot so I've been babying it a little - will go from my highest mileage month last month to my lowest this month! Oh well.

    1/20 - 2 mile walk
    1/23 - 1/2 mile warm up, 5 mile run, 1/2 mile cool down

    1/1 - 2.4/50
    1/4 - 5.5/50
    1/6 - 8.6/50
    1/11 - 10.1/50
    1/12 - 24.7/50
    1/16 - 27.2/50
    1/20 - 29.2/50
    1/23 - 37.2/50

    Irked I could not get my long run in this weekend because my mileage is so low, but with a recovery week and an injury week I'm just going to have to take this one on the chin. I'll still hit 50 this month but I really thought I'd be closer to 80!

    1/28 - 1/2 mile warm up, 5 mile run, 1/2 mile cool down


    1/1 - 2.4/50
    1/4 - 5.5/50
    1/6 - 8.6/50
    1/11 - 10.1/50
    1/12 - 24.7/50
    1/16 - 27.2/50
    1/20 - 29.2/50
    1/23 - 37.2/50
    1/28 - 43.2/50
