@nottafattie that is great your son ran with you. I love when my 14 year old daughter runs with me.
Love the tickers @QHjr and @nottafattie that's what I look like running when it's windy, my feet are going but my body isn't moving.0 -

In a little late, but I'm in for 80 miles this month. On the long road to a half marathon in August with a pit stop along the way at a 10k in the spring. This has been a personal goal of mine that I've never quite been able to dedicate myself to. I've had enough, and this year is my year.
Finally healing up from a pulled back muscle this weekend, so I have big plans for the treadmill after work. Not logging those yet though.
3/2 - 3 miles (walked because of back pain, but I'm counting them!)

@4leighbee Lucky you with the muddy trial run! I can't wait to run my river's edge trail through the woods again, it's still deep under snow here.
@skippygirlsmom overcast but 42°F here today! I was so excited I ran in a tank and capris too!
@autumnblade75 I was so excited to see you running again, now I'm sad that it was too soon. Don't worry you're getting stronger every day!
@nottafattie love that your son ran with you. My daughters (& friends) ran with me again Monday for the first time in 2015. They take winters off and they really don't understand why I love to run outside.0 -

You have to mention the outrageous cycling goal.
@ddmom0811 logs her cycling miles here too, she goes out for some incredibly long rides. Well, I'm not a cyclist so I think they're incredible.
Welcome Back friend!

My cycling goal this month is 600 miles. I would love to do more running, but I'm trying to take it easy on my knee right now.

3/4: 3 mile jog with dogs this morning. 6 mile lunch run. Was not expecting to run so much. Honestly, I am happy it is out of the way, but I never do tempos back to back. We have an off site work lunch/meeting tomorrow. SO thankful I brought workout clothes today! Had to run on the fly. Didn't have headphones or running shorts. Only too big leggings lol. Awkward lunch run

Goal: 60
01 March = 2.56 miles
02 March = 2.00 miles
04 March = 5.02 miles - did an out and back route... accidentally stopped my Garmin at half way instead of hitting the lap button - so annoyed as the second half felt faster than the first and I very rarely manage negative splits... ah well!

I'm in a fight with my iphone because I just realized only half of my last post made it through the wifis, so let's try this again:
I'm in for 100 this month- I'm exactly 8 weeks out from a marathon and have a half marathon (Run the Bluegrass in Lexington) on the 28th.
- 3/1- 14 miles. It was sleeting all day, so on the treadmill Thank god for House of Cards
- 3/2- 3 miles (in the snow!)
- 3/3- weights and yoga day
- 3/4- 4 miles. On the treadmill again. Can't wait to be in Arizona next week!
That puts me at 21 miles so far this month/week!0 -

Wow! 600 miles! I'm just biking 34 on Saturdays (group ride) and then Sundays are always different - sometimes 50, sometimes 25, sometimes a run instead.
I went to my running store tonight to get new shoes and I ended up buying the same exact ones I already have. I just started running last summer, so these are my first running shoes. I went in all excited to get a different pair after reading all of you discuss the thrill of new shoes but then when I tried these same ones on, I loved them again. They are New Balance 880v4. When I bought them in August I tried on at least 10 pairs before I finally settled. I didn't even think they would still make the same ones because I figured like textbooks, they make new ones every year. The person who helped me looked at my old shoes and said that I was wearing them out evenly, so I guess that was good.
Give me another year and I'll be an expert.... okay, I won't be an expert, but I'll at least know what brand I wear (which I really didn't even remember until I looked at them tonight).
