      December 3: 4.62 miles
      December 5: 5.00 miles
      December 7: 3.88 miles
      December 8: 4.00 miles

      Didn't get a long run in this weekend due to the rain yesterday and doing a hilly trail run with a friend today (was hoping for 5 today but it was hillier than I expected) but still, I'm a quarter of the way there and it's a quarter of the way through the month, so I'm on target. :)

      With the crappy weather here this weekend, I didn't get to walk any. Hopefully I can make up for it this week. I've got a lot of catching up to do!

      Okay, maybe my ambitions are too high considering I'm just starting out...should I lower my goal? Or just do my best to get to 50 and if I don't make it oh well?

      I would say just try your best and if you don't make it, then add 5 miles to whatever you do get to for next month's goal!

      Starting today and just back to walking after being in a lupus flare and having a herniated disc in my neck. It is hard to do but I have to fight to get my life back I have been down all year and I am tired of it.

      12/10/13 1 mile - 49 to go.
