Thanks again for setting the group up!
Good luck everyone - have a great month.0 -
Great thank you for this group! Tonight begins week 10 day 1 of C210K app. I have signed up for three different races in September - one 5K, one 8K and one 10K. My running group is forming a team for a 1/2 marathon for the end of October and **deep breath** I have signed up! I am pretty sure I will not be running the full 13.1 miles; I am under no illusions I am there yet - but I have to push and challenge myself, otherwise I tend to stagnate.0

That's awesome, good luck with the races.0 -
OK - for me this is HUGE!! When I started logging my runs back in April I was averaging a slow 13-14 minutes a mile (walk/run combo); my first time I run a full mile without walking it all I ran it in over 12 minutes. Tonight I ran 4 miles and averaged 11 minutes a mile. Still slow in comparison to women in my 40-50 age group, but a vast improvement for me. But the main thing I was consistent - each mile was run at about the same pace.0

Thank you setting up this group. I have been walking since January 2014, and hopefully soon move on to running.

I calculated how many miles I would have to do a day in order to reach my goal and it was 2.25. My immediate thought was 'oh that's easy since I am running 3-5 miles each time I run'. Back in June because I was only running 2-2.5 miles I didn't reach my goal. So this means I still get the rest days in like I need to.0

Just a reminder that your run logs should be posted on the main thread and not here. This thread is for posting comments and encouragement and asking questions.
Post your logs [and ticker] at this link....

By the way, the ticker website I think is having problems this morning. Try later if it won't update.0 -

I was about to go running tonight and a monsoon hit! I didn't run Sunday due to illness and now this. I will be so far behind on my mile goal. :sad:
