    Day 2 running with audio book, I think I found something I enjoy. I'm listening to Gone Girl. That's just running straight, I think I will go back to working on the C25K, I felt like I got my miles in for the time.

    "I'm trying something different, does anybody run listening to audio books? It didn't seem to make my run and workout to bad"
    ...I've downloaded podcasts for listening while I run: only problem is "wait, wait, don't tell me" makes me laugh so hard I lose my stride!

    I had the same moment, but I was lifting at the time, I looked around wondering if someone thought I was crazy.

        Month is not going well so far. The cold and wet weather has hit with a vengeance. First run of the week since Sunday and my time on my regular route was up by a minute. Waterproof running jacket is now on order! Never thought this running malarkey would mean so much I'd actually seek our new gear!!!!

        10/8 ~ 1.21 mi (6.81) (-38.19) Been having increasing issues with my IT Band and am starting some physical therapy to strengthen my hips to help out. REALLY don't see myself making even this small goal, but I'll keep at it!
        Sorry to hear about your IT band struggles. :'( You are wise to take it easy & seek physical therapy now. This summer I ran with young guy who kept running till he just couldn't stand the pain anymore. His doctor told him absolutely no running for 3 months while he does pt to repair the damage he's done. I'd go bonkers if I couldn't run at all.

        That's what happens to me in fall. Finding the right combination of layers to stay warm & dry without being overdressed is tricky. The shopping part is fun though. ;)

        Lucky you! It was too cloudy here. Did you catch the selenelion? (eclipsed moon and sun in the sky at the same time).

          It was supposed to be hot - in the mid 80s and now they are saying much nicer. We are expecting 60 at race start and mid to low 70s by the finish at the beach! Should be perfect running weather! Have a great (long!) race!
