I figured it would be easier to have a place we could post our runs daily.

I have been fighting bronchitis and was happy to get in a 3.5 mile run on the treadmill today without coughing!0

In recovery mode from my Surf City half marathon. Yesterday I did 70 minutes of walking with a few light jogs. Today I am going to try and find my yoga for runners video.0

I don't run every day. Lifted yesterday, today will be a snowy, cold 4.5 miles, Leg Day is Wednedays, Thursday 3-4 miles, Saturday 7-8 and Sunday will be 3-4. Switched to a more advanced 1/2 training plan so my weekly miles will be increasing.0

3.25 miles.....5.3 mph0

I did 6 miles today. Tomorrow will be a running day off. Either lifting or swimming-haven't decided yet0

3.25 miles 5.4mph0

You guys are awesome! Short run for me today because I also did some lifting, but my best time ever! 3 miles in 29:59. I was so excited. Now I'm just tired, lol!0

Today was a non running day for me. Did Body Combat class. Scheduled to run 8 on Saturday and if the weather holds, tomorrow will be a 4-5 mile0

Hi Folks. I am a newbie on groups on My Fitness Pal. I have lost 60 pounds this year. Still weigh 345 and I am going to run in the Myrtle Beach Half Marathon a week from Saturday. I look forward to sharing with you all this year as I continue to run and to get under 300 pounds for the first time in a long time. Today is a machine day. Tomorrow a short run to keep the legs loose. Do you have any good suggestions for the race next week? :happy:0

Terrific loss! My best advice - have fun! I try to keep positive thoughts when I'm running. When I thnk about anything negative, I can feel myself fatiguing. Let us know how you did!0 -
Did my 8 miles today at my pace for my 1/2 from October (around 11:30). Learned this is a good, slow pace for my long runs as your LR should be slower by 60-90 seconds than your normal pace and easy. However, learned that I need to abide by the rule to dress as if its 20 degrees warmer bc I was too hot at times. Also need to get back to the routine of avoiding certain trigger foods the day before/of a LR 60+ mins; upset belly!!!0

Did 8 today. My pace was awesome IF I were racing. I cannot control my pace. I tell myself to slow down but then I just don't. The last 1/2 mile was tough so I need to change this for my next run. Tips?? I keep an eye on my pace throughout the run and will slow down but it's always temporary. I did a 9:10 today and would really like to be doing the long runs at a minimum of 9:30 but more like a 10. I will never do a 13 at this pace today0

I took a break this weekend and did light running/walking to fully recover from the bronchitis. I also swam! I did 3.1 for pace yesterday and had a piltaes certification yesterday. Tomorrow I am going to try and get 7-9 in during kids rest time. I would love to be outside but it's dark so early that by the time my husband gets home from work its too late.0

Do you have a heart rate monitor that you could set an alarm for? If not I think it will just take a lot of mental thinking to remind yourself to slow it down.0

Got a solid five in today at a good pace (for me). Working on my plan to get to my full 10 miles at my intended pace for the run on May 5. Barring injuries and complications, I know I can finish... But I want to finish STRONG!

I would say get one of those watches that keeps pace - it will beep at you if you're too slow or fast!0 -

I have a Garmin Forerunner 110. I don't think it has that feature but I will check. My best friend was saying she's doing the exact same thing. We used to run together but we can't get our schedules to match so I am going to keep trying.
As for training, I did 3 miles yesterday with a Body Combat class after.0 -
10 mile run today. Felt pretty good- stiff but good.0

I'll also be starting Les Mills Pump next week for strength training.0

Welcome and congrats on the weight loss. I love the support you'll find on MFP.
Let us know how the race goes.0 -
Did 8 on Saturday. VERY hilly. Holy crap it was tough, but our group did it.0

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
