    Nice easy run tonight... as post-rest day runs seem to be the most fun. Spent part of the run visualizing crossing the finish line of my next marathon under my goal time... still, I don't think that training really works that way.

    3/1 - 17 miles
    3/3 - 5 miles

    Total: 22 miles
    Goal: 180 miles
    Remaining: 158 miles

    @CodeMonkey78‌ - Welcome back! So inquiring minds want to know what your ambitious cycling goal is to go along with the 140 running miles
    @ShortMrsN‌ - you go girl!!
    @Elise4270‌ - nice that the deer were willing to pose for you :)
    @JoRocka‌ - what did I tell you? Running is definitely addictive! Just be sure to keep in mind @LoneWolfRunner‌'s reminders - very important (and oh so funny)!

    Ya! My winter x-small running pants came! :( I had to try them on and they are acceptable. I mean a little tight... But I'm hoping to lose the roll. So, don't think I'll send them back. They are still super comfortable.

    Yeah!!! And better a little tight than a little loose. I definitely have a pair that wanders southward often taking my underwear with them until I get sweaty enough to hold them in place. You don't need that!!

    Sounds great!! And I think a number of sports psychologists would absolutely say it works that way!!! I read a bunch of articles once you got my curiosity piqued...this is the one I liked best!

    @runningmischka Congrats on your pregnancy! Have you already purchased a jogging stroller? I don't have a nice one but I really hate running with the stroller... of course, my "baby" is over 30 lbs!

    So far:

    3/2 = 4.56 miles
    3/3 = 2.26 miles
