    Starting training for my first full marathon this month, I will run the Portland Marathon on October 5th. Going with Hal Higdon's Novice 2 training plan, 18 weeks of training.

    So my goal for May is 79 miles, which is the first 4 weeks of the training plan.

    May is going to be a challenging month for me. We have so much going on and I'm planning on running more than biking, preparing for a 5k on June 1. So, I will shoot for 200 miles between running and cycling, and pray that my very full schedule allows me to meet my challenge!!

    Going for 25 miles again this month because a) I didn't make it last month and b) I JUST TURNED 25!!! *Cue quarter -life crisis* Also, I was given a fitbit flex for my birthday, which I'm super excited about, so this weekend I am going to sit down, figure out how to use the fitbit and set some serious goals! Happy May everybody!
    Happy 25th Birthday, CORRIEJANE!! :flowerforyou: You're going to love your new Fitbit too. They are awesome for getting a person moving even more than they already do! :smile:

    JSANDE10 - Welcome to another new face! :smile:

    I'm thrilled to see all the happy faces coming back for more!!! :bigsmile:

    I have failed month after month due to illness, schedules, etc. so I know I should really bow out until things get back to the way they were but I am scared if I don't have SOMETHING calling me then I won't ever get back. The spring is just insane for me due to spring sports with four of my six being involved in something and also school (I'm a teacher) gets crazier and crazier the closer it gets. I live on a prison farm due to my husband's job and rank so I can't go out in the dark and it is just not feasible for me to go back into town late at night. I am going to work through all of this......actually, baseball and softball is over in two weeks....that's how I am going to work through it! Season is winding down so less games so maybe, just maybe, I can get some miles in.

    Goal: 50 miles

    150 miles for me this month.

    The Athens Half Marathon is next Sunday. I'm only running the 5K distance which I'd like to finish under 35 minutes. If I keep training like I am right now I'll most probably give the half a try next year.

    Dave

    Thank you it's nice to be back in the challenge, it'll keep me motivated and on track for my training. :smile: I'm glad you found my old info I wasn't sure if it would still be there.

    I will try for 100 miles again. I will be away on holiday for two weeks so I don't know how many miles I will do. Also may not have an internet connection so may not be able to post my miles. I will have to save them until I get back

    I am in again, hoping for better walking weather then we are getting now. 40's and rain for a the 5th day is not conducive to walking!

    Goal: 25

    Still moving, but my long walks (and rides) are being replaced by packing up our house to put it on the market. I don't count steps for MYA, but my aim is always 10k before I pick up the kids at school, and I always make it. :)

    Goal this month: 75mi

    I did horrible last month. First, I started about a week after the beginning of the month and I didn't finish. I love this challenge and it has helped me in the past so I'm not going to give up but try harder.

    Count me in for 30miles!
