    My goal is 60 for this month... I'm fairly new to running, but I have to run a certain number of km for my 10k training each week. This should be pretty easy to complete! Good luck with your challenges!

    I had to take it easy today, and prove to myself, that, yes, I have an injury and need to maybe take a few days off from running.

    I also think it's time for new shoes.
    Yuck! Hope your injury's not severe & that new shoes fix the problem. I start getting blisters when my shoes are going but I have a buddy who gets shin splints & another friend who'll get knee troubles. Good shoes are vital to the runner aren't they?!?
    Rest, Recuperate & come back strong!

    Thanks, well I'm also sick; it forces me to take it easy.

    My doctor said to stop running if my cold's below the neck and continue running if it's above the neck. I've had a chest cold since my last run 10/12 but plan to resume in the next few days. :smile:

    Thanks - Stoshew71 has been helping me with training tips...one of which was train for a HM. So I've worked to come out of my comfort zone and add mileage. Registered for a half in April so I'm working. :sunglasses:

    My daughter has asthma and her pulmonoglogist highly encouraged track and cross country for her, but said the same thing. "Above the neck, you can run, below the neck, stop".
