That is awesome! I really want to get out there and do 5 today. I want to be able to post that I did it, too!0 -
I've been on vacation since Saturday in Florida but have gotten some short, tempo runs in. Did my 3rd one of the week today and may kick out 1 more before we head back Saturday. Will plan on 7-8 miles Sunday depending on how I feel. May cut it to 5-6.0

Just getting back to the computer. I ran in the Myrtle Beach Half Marathon this past weekend. My first. I finished (slowly) and have been in recovery mode all week. I did the bike and the treadmill today. I have more weight to lose and more training to do before my next one.
Any suggestions on a nice half marathon on a relatively flat course?0 -

Awesome! What general area?0 -
9.5 done today. Was supposed to be 10, but I messed up in my route calculations and figured it was good enough LOL0

Did my longest - 10 last week. This week I'm suppose to do
11. I ran 10,5, 3, 2, 2, 3, 45 min walk- last week. Today I did 2.0 -
Finally got a really good mid week run in. 6 miles in a very comfortable pace. Supposed to do 11 on Saturday and I just cannot believe how hard that sounds!0

No one has checked in since last week so I will put my runs on. Only 10 days now til my half marathon so beginning the taper...more or less.
For me a PB in February. Average 2.9 miles a day which totalled over 81 miles! Wow!
This week a fast 4 miler last night and 6 the evening before in 53 mins. Not bad for a 47 year old new to running.
One more long-ish run planned for tomorrow morning then it's downhill all the way!0 -
3 miler today. Nice and easy! Which was amazing as 12 months ago I was absolutely knackered after that run! One more warm up tomorrow afternoon of 3 miles and a 15 min shakeout on Saturday then the BIG DAY!!0

I've been off and on sick the past couple weeks. I have manages a 9 and 6 mile run but the rest have been about 3-4 before I can't breathe. Finally starting to feel better and hoping to get a long run in this week.0

Good luck tomorrow! Let us know how it goes0

This week I managed a 12 mile run and then kept rest at 3-5 miles.0

6.25 mile run today at my standard pace (12). Feel confident that I'll finish the half in may, even if slow!0

Awesome runs! I haven't reported in awhile so I will share:
2 weeks ago, we did 12 miles and it was awesome. Felt pretty good (as good as you could feel for 12 miles anyway).
The next week was hard for me bc I organized an obstacle 5K and it was Saturday, March 16 so I couldn't get my long run in with my group so I tried a 13 mile run on my own during the week. It was horrible. I hit a wall at 9 miles and really struggled. I ended up doing 11.75 but did walking/running intervals for the last mile or so and it was an easier route than the 12 mile run. BUT 1) I was alone, 2) on our 12 mile run, our group leader planted GU and water at the turnaround and I didn't for this run, and 3) my pace was all over the place and I was going MUCH faster than I had wanted. Lessons learned: 1) Plant water or GU (or buy a pack) and 2) Focus more on my pace since I can control having to run on my own.
Anyway, we did 8 this weekend since we are tapering and my 1/2 is in less than 2 weeks. I am thinking I can do all 13.1 but will have to make some adjustments0 -
Yesterday was gym day, so I got to lift some heavy things. Today was 4.5 m that felt awesome!0

Went out for 14 mile run today and just under 2 miles my right leg seized up near tr outer hip area. Stretching on course did t help so hobbled home and hoping it is better tomorrow so I can get that long run in! Not sure what happened.0

Hope it's good for you today!0

Did 8 today for my last long run before my 1/2. Our group did not run slow though--we were very bad the last 2 weeks about that. Anxious to see how we do next week!0 -
So my runs this week have been 4.5, 3, and 5. Yesterday was rest, today is cross, and tomorrow is 7.0
