@autumnblade75 Congrats on your goal! I wasn't really rushing YOU or anyone else for that matter. Tomorrow is February 1st after all, which means we are that much closer to Spring, sunshine and warmer runs!

I wasn't taking it personally - but it got me off my butt and to the gym. Spring is good. No ice on the roads and sidewalks will be good. I don't expect that in February. All in good time. BD

It is so great to see everyone's accomplishments! Awesome job in January, especially in the weather conditions many of you ran in!
@autumnblade75 - you made it! I know you could!!
@SLHysell - Congrats on the 10K PR - awesome time!
@LoneWolfRunner - 144 miles in the weather you have been running in (-xx) may be a goal missed but definitely NOT a failure!
Onward to the February Challenge! See you all there!!0 -
10.25 miles today for a January total of 132 miles!

Congratulations to all you runners! You really kept me going for the month by running such great mileage and in extreme conditions. I admire you all. And thanks for making this challenge open to those of us who use indoor machines and do not get all our mileage outdoors. I love being able to hear your stories and feel a part of such a wonderful group. Looking forward to our next challenge!0 -
Great job all! Now...on to February. Hopefully it won't be as cold as January.0

I have been horrible about updating my progress here, but I hit my goal for the month! Next month - 10 more miles.

My final run for January was Saturday, 1/31. 7.46 miles in one hour, 18 minutes. My first run without walking breaks! Though I came in very short of my goal, I am proud that the flare up of my old spine injury did not stop me from continuing to try. I'm hoping to run 48 miles in February.0 -

I ended up the month with 123 running miles, so met both my regular and stretch goals. I was planning on running a half in February but my right knee started acting up during a 14 miler and so this week I kept things shorter and now the left is actually much more of an issue than the right. I'm in excellent shape running wise, and want to keep it that way so I've been much more cautious the last week or so.
The person who I was going to join for the half has a conflict and the thought of racing this solo, coupled with injury risk and driving 4 hours each way is making this less likely. We have a half in my city the 3rd week of February and so I may just do that if the weather is good and my knee starts feeling better.
Onto February. I really appreciate this thread even if I only check in 2 times a month. It is very motivational.0 -

I'm going to try again this month with a target of 50 miles.
