August Running Challange

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

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

7 miles... 65.8 so far this month out of 185 goal

I've run 51km so far. My goal is 110 km.

can't get the ticker to work...

I hate the ticker is broken - I miss it LOL
