    I'm at 47.3 for the month. I haven't decided if I'm going to run today or not. Yesterday's run was a new (and challenging) route so my legs are sore. Either way, 47.3 miles for the month is a personal best so I'm pretty pleased.

    The power of a group and a challenge like this is the accountability. After I posted the above post I realized I had just posted a lame excuse to not go run. My legs were sore?!?! REALLY?!?!??!?!?! They were sore because I had used them, not because I was injured.

    I figured I had less than 3 miles to run today so I should just get off my butt and go do it. My total for September is 50.48 miles, 8 miles over my former personal best for a month. Thanks for this challenge!
