Clearwater distance classic Sunday (just doing the full, not the ultra 50k). Weather is looking promising, so hoping I'll crack the 3:45 mark. Series (full/half/5 mile/5k walk) has 1700 participants, but suspect only about 800 of us are doing the full.0 -

Yesterday was an "I just don't feel like it" kind of day, but I did get a short 3 miler in. It was cold and rainy...and about a mile in I suddenly had to poop. So...I cut my planned 4+ mile run a little short. I'm still surprised at how much influence bathroom needs have on running. I can't count the times I've had to pee in the woods, but I draw the line at #2.
I usually end my runs at the gym, so I made up for the lost distance with an extra-long cruise on the stationary bike...AFTER taking care of necessary business of course.
01/01/2015 - 5.02 Miles - Cumulative 5.02 Miles
01/04/2015 - 6.53 Miles - Cumulative 11.55 Miles
01/06/2015 - 6.70 Miles - Cumulative 18.25 Miles
01/08/2015 - 4.50 Miles - Cumulative 22.75 Miles (Brrrrr...it was cold!)
01/11/2015 - 7.35 Miles - Cumulative 30.10 Miles (Big dog scared the crap out of me)
01/13/2015 - 7.55 Miles - Cumulative 37.65 Miles (New route with actual hills)
01/16/2015 - 3.26 Miles - Cumulative 40.91 Miles
GOAL: 75 Miles

I'm just starting out after a 6 month hiatus. I'm getting warmed up. All runs done on treadmill. I'm not tough enough to run in Michigan's brutal winter temperatures.
Jan 13th - 2 miles
Jan 15th - 3.2 miles
My ticker isn't cooperating . It should read 5.2 miles done; 19.8 to go.

I'm glad I'm not alone in this!
I actually plan a great deal of my routes as circuits around blocks with stores with public restrooms on the corner. This way I only have a mile or two max between areas I can make a stop at. Of course, for trail runs that is not an option.
My biggest fear is a race with insufficient restrooms along the route. Hasn't happened yet. Yet being the key word...0 -

Thanks so much It was the perfect break from the hospital room.
Back in the desert now and (hopefully) regular schedule.
Yay! Almost halfway there!0 -

One of the worst feelings in the world is being at the turn-around point in the run and having the "urge". But that really builds the glutes, huh?

Ran 3 miles in the am yesterday and then ended up running 4 more in the evening with my mom. Brings me to 70.5miles for the month (100 mi goal)
And I agree with all the bathroom talk! I know where every public bathroom is around my town (and the hours they are open).0 -
