Feel like an idiot because I kept updating my ticker at least 10 times, but it kept deleting the update. Glad I caught up on reading posts and realized I wasn't the only one having problems. Looks like everyone is doing a great job. I was thrilled with achieving a new distance of 8 miles while on vacation - my husband was probably annoyed with my continued euphoric comments of "I'm thrilled with myself for making 8 miles"! Then topped that off with a 15.3 mile hike the following day - feeling awesome! :happy:

8/1 - 4.24
8/3 - 5.22
8/4 - 3.68
8/5 - 4.21
8/6 - 4.16

8/9 - 8.13

Total - 33.86 ... 66.14 to go

I'm late to start logging for August due to some computer issues and I just tried in vain to get a ticker going but see that others are having that problem as well.

I'm trying to transition from treadmill to outdoors, increase my pace a lot (I'm new and slow so a semi "big" jump isn't unreasonable) and trying out new trail shoes in preparation for an obstacle course race at the end of the month. So, yeah, I'm a hot mess this month. :laugh:

And my right hip has started to hurt yesterday during my run. :sad: This is still a better month than July when I was on pain pills for a month and banned from physical activity!

As of yesterday I had 5 runs equaling 12.6 miles out of a goal of 32 miles.

8/1 - 3.2km
8/2 -
8/3 -

8/6 - 2.0km
8/7 - 10.0km

8/4, 3 miles
8/5, 3.1 miles
8/6, 3.2 miles
8/10, 5.6 miles
8/11, 5.6 miles

8/13, 5.79 miles (dreadmill)

August total = 26.29; Goal = 62

On track for making my goal this month!! Feels good after not making my June and July goals.

I'll get in on this.
I like the ticker, but I really don't want yet another website sending me emails and whatnot, so I'll just post my goal and what I do here

I have a 5k coming up at the end of the month, so yay 3 extra miles tacked on!

lets try for 25 for the month

I've done nearly 8 at the moment. I'm pushing myself and I try to get 6 a week, but I know I've messed up more times than I can count. I just can't seem to get out as often as I'd like. Summer schedules make things hard for everyone in my little family.

so: 7.93/25
