      8/17 - 3.31 miles
      8/18 - rest day
      total: 53 - goal met!!!

      The thunder, lightening and sideways pouring rain kept me in this morning. It's not supposed to clear up at all so I think today will need to be a rest day.

      Folks, we are on the 20th page of this thread. After we reach a total of 500 comments (the 25th comment on this 20'th page), the topic will roll over to a new thread. You will no longer be able to make comments on this thread. However, at the bottom of this page (once we hit 500), there will be 2 links that says " continued at this topic" and "last part of this topic is here". If you see these 2 links, click the "continued at this topic" link. "this topic" will be blue. From there you will be able to continue logging.

      If you get lost, go to the group page at: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/21182-monthly-running-challange
      And I will try and make sure I add the link to the rolled over topic. The rolled over topic will be called, "August Running Challenge (Part 2)" .

      Everyone is doing great. Many of you are doing something like this for the very first time and are doing great things. Keep up the great work, everyone.

      Had to create a new ticker.

      8/2: 4.0 miles on treadmill
      8/4: 3.7 miles on treadmill
      8/5: 3.3 miles on treadmill
      8/9: 4.5 miles on treadmill
      8/14: 2.5 miles on treadmill
      8/16: 4 miles on treadmill

      I want to run outside again but I'm paranoid about running in the dark. Also, got new running shoes I will breaking in this week, and retiring my old shoes at the Color Run 5K this weekend. :)

      Decided to change my goal to 50 miles to get me out of my comfort zone and push myself a little harder.

      02AUG14 - 5.28 miles
      03AUG14 - 1.75 mile run with a friend
      05AUG14 - 3.3 miles
      07AUG14 - 2.75 miles
      09AUG14 - 5.19 miles
      11AUG14 - 3.12 miles
      13AUG14 - 1.81 miles with my son for a total of 23.2 miles. Tickerfactory is giving me fits right now, will update ticker when I can.
      14AUG14 - 2.21 miles - tickerfactory is still being a pain for me. Will have to recreate when I have a minute.
      16AUG14 - 4.61 miles - didn't even try tickerfactory. I give up. :P
      18AUG14 - 2.94 miles - Ticker below!

      10 miles this morning...

      I took my dogs for a run this morning - was hoping to get 4.5 miles in; had to stop at 3 as our big black, flat-coated retriever (think golden, but just jet black) was getting overheated. In this Texas heat I have to take that seriously.
