    Some of you are such inspirations. I do my 6 miles and I am huffing and puffing when I'm done. To think of doing 9 miles makes me break out in hives. I guess I just have to keep going. Question though, for those who run in colder weather, I see the weather changing here in CT, I know I need to get some cold weather clothes to wear, can I find them on amazon? Under armor brand perhaps? Any cheaper ones? I don't have that much money to spare :grumble: Also, any tips in helping a *somewhat* newbie increase her endurance and reduce her time? I've always been a fast walker, didn't like jogging as much. I started picking up my pace in August and I've seen some changes but I still have to take a couple minutes rest after about 3 miles and then jog the last 3 miles without stopping. I want to increase my pace and reduce my time. Tips appreciated. Sorry for the long post :smile:

    i would suggest that you gradually increase milage. slow down a little if you need to, but run further. i've found that the more slow miles i log, the faster my body is able to go when i want to pick up the speed on shorter runs. after you build a nice comfortable number of base miles (8-10) you can throw in some hill training and interval training to help increase speed. best wishes!

    Well, apparently I injured my foot on my long run last Sunday. I finally broke down and went to the ortho yesterday. It's either a sprain (please! please! please!) or a possible stress fracture. I have to stay away from running until I can walk with no pain and then I can try running again. If no pain, I am good to go. Pain equals another xray and possibly 6 weeks downtime :( So, I probably won't make my goal this month, but hopefully I'll be back to trying by next week!
