    =============================
    SPREADSHEET UPDATED TO HERE

    See (but not edit) the
    spreadsheet here:

    =============================

    Sorry I'm so late updating. I did my last long training run for the marathon and it takes me a while to do 22 miles LOL. I've now got 33 bonus miles. :) That's probably my last run for 2014, but I may have some walking or running miles still to come.

    AlethaMary - we call it a challenge because we push ourselves to do the best we can. As long as you give it a try and finish strong, that's all that counts.

    Dave - I sure hope you recover quickly. Some pain killers until then?

    Rockann - relaxing and enjoying is important too. I know you'll be back moving your @ss next month like you always do.

    VHuber - grandsons on the sled sounds like a blast. I'm sure your legs are turning from rubber to steel the more you do.

    Cpanus - maybe the mother of the bride needs a honeymoon trip too. I mean you did a ton of work leading up to the big event. Now it's over, you need to decompress. I think you deserve a trip to Hawaii yourself!

    LuckySusan - Dave slipped in there and took care of noting you're a fitbit member on the spreadsheet.

    And last but not least, congratuations Scarfe on placing in the 5k!! I'm sorry your stomach was protesting your win. As a runner who has suffered through many stomach issues, I can tell you that by observing what works and what doesn't over several years I have finally been able to come up with a pre-race regimen that works (usually). Keep trying until you figure it out.

    Well, that's what should* happen anyway. If they don't, don't worry about them. People shouldn't make fun of anyone for making resolutions to lose weight and get more fit. Encourage them and just maybe they'll stick with it! :flowerforyou:

    Dave

    I see obese people on the bike trail all the time and I can't help but think, "That takes commitment to get out there when you're that heavy. More power to them!" I would like to tell them that but I'm afraid one of them would take offense when it was meant as a compliment.

    Dave I wish you well!!! A foam roller & a muscle relaxant sounds like the remedy!

    Thanks JT! I do need to experiment with the food...when I run easy and/or long, I'm lucky to have an iron stomach, so this is new territory! Nicely done on your 22 AND those awesome bonus miles!

    7 leisurely miles today! By golly I think I'll make goal tomorrow perhaps!

    Thanks, JTH! The kids had a blast. My mother lived over there for 18 years...I did visit once or twice...can I trade Hawaii for a trip to the Grand Canyon? I've never been there.

    It was a good day!

    Sun - 8.01 miles

    WOOT!! WOOT!! to LAMLAM2013 for making GOAL!!! :drinker:

    Only three more days left in this month's challenge, my friends! Grab those miles while you can! :smiley:


    As for me, today my back was a little better. Thankfully it's responding to more activity and getting stronger again. I managed to do my league bowling today and two of my three games were over my average so I was happy with that. I also rode my stationary bike again tonight (6.0 miles) without any issues so that was hopeful as well. :smile:
