    I ran what my run group leader calls a "mega" mile at the track yesterday. It involves bleachers on each trip around the track. We actually did 6 laps so I guess it was really a "mega" mile and a half. GPS on my Nike+ said 1.7. Not much toward my goal, But I'll get out there today and run again.
    I'm not sure if that sounds fun or brutal...


    _Date___ Miles____ Total
    Nov 1 ____ 16.3 ____ 16.3
    Nov 2 ____ 7.1 ______ 23.4
    Nov 3 ____ 6.2+8.1__ 37.7

    To the ladies who asked, my marathon was so fun! Because of the ridiculous wind and hills though, I decided to go the smart route and run it easy since it was my first and i didn't want to run out of steam. If anyone is interested here is the link to my blog post: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/RunnerElizabeth/view/manchester-city-marathon-manchester-nh-november-2nd-2014-706862
    Kind of long though, I was so excited, I had a lot to say!

    Another decent day! I prefer morning runs but during the week, night time runs will just have to do.

    I was out for the month of October, but I am back! I ran 4.5 miles today, and 3.5 on Saturday. Think I will set my goal for 60 miles this month.

    Okay, let's try this again. My first half marathon is in a few weeks. I am setting my goal at 65.1 miles. That includes all my scheduled runs, up to and including the half. After that, I'll figure out what I want to do next.

    November 2, 3.1 miles (5K Race), 32 min (my worst 5K race time, stupid asthma)

    Total: 3.1 miles

    Well done!! :smile:
    My Sister in law did her first (& she swears last!) marathon on Sunday too. I'm thinking about doing a half next year sometime.

    I did a time hill challenge yesterday evening which a group of us started doing as a monthly challenge to see what improvements we've made, the weather was so bad last night that most of us were slower than we were last month which was disappointing.
    11/1... 11 miles
    11/3... 4 miles

    15 miles completed.
    55 to go.

      I was where you are now in July. Just wanted to say good luck and keep going.

      I ran 5 miles on Sunday so it can be done and is its very addictive. Especially when logging every run here.

      Slow to start this month, my running partner bailed on me twice. So far for November:

      11/1 Nothing
      11/2 Spin
      11/3 Treadmill for about 2.25 miles

      Never used a tickler so I hope this works.

      I will someday learn how to make the ticker thing a reality. But for now will declare another 100 mile goal, but hoping to get north of 110 due to the favorable calendar layout. A 5 weekend month, cooler weather and mornings where I can see my feet land if need be should pay off (as long as no health issues crop up).

      11/1-8 miles
      11/2-5.2
      11/4-6.1

      Off to a good start and the splits are getting much faster.
