I'm new to this challenge, but I figure it will be a great motivator for me. No specific training goals in mind until mid-April, when I start training for a half marathon. Right now, I'm just trying to get back to my normal pace, I took time off in Jan/Feb for an inflammed hip tendon. I also had wrist surgery on 2/27, so no workouts the first week of March.

I'm officially out of the challenge since I broke a bone in my foot two days ago. Hopefully I'll catch the June challenge -- that's when I'll be up and running again according to the doctor. It was nice while it lasted.

OUCH! Feel better soon.

Had to raise my goal again. This time to 55!

Had to raise my goal to 45 since I have already crushed my goal of 35 :smokin:
