    4/1.... 8 miles

    8/150 goal

    A very, very, very windy run with my mom this evening! The sand from the dunes were hitting us hard. Like little painful pellets. Ouch!
    Ouch!!
    I had a fair bit of wind today too.... was being flicked and swatted by my ponytail at one point (and that stings!!!) Note to self.....ALWAYS put hair into a bun!!

    Two days in a row of 6:30AM runs. Not a morning person, but if it gets me some company for the run, and gets me out in cooler weather, I shouldn't complain too much.

    4/1 - 8 miles
    4/2 - 5 miles

    Total: 13 miles
    Goal: 145 miles
    Remaining: 132 miles

    We started our run yesterday along the lake (Saginaw Bay/Lake Huron) and I was happy to see all the open water.

    Thunderstorms last night kept me from running, so I had to sneak one in before work this morning.

    Good morning, everyone! Just checking in. I'm in for 105 this month, which I think will stretch me.

    Busy day starting with a very fast (for me) under 10 min mile, run and then met my daughter for a walk along the trail where I run. Ended the day with putting her on a plane home :( Will miss her but glad to get back to my normal routine! I did buy new running shoes, Brooks Pure Flow - can't wait to take them for a spin in the morning!

    Great run! I'm sorry your baby girl had to go home.

    April 1 - rest -- hate to not run the first of the month but was traveling all day. In the future I am going to just get up really early if I am traveling and just do it!
    April 2- 6.01 miles - got to run in daylight so left the neighborhood! It was so fun! I'm working on the "lean" from Good Form Running -- when you do it right, there is very little effort!

    @shanaber - yep, it's always bittersweet to put my daughter on the plane back to school.
    @skippygirlsmom - you are going to do great in the HM!
    @daisy471 - wow that's beautiful!
    @briebee7 - that's the worst! It was very windy in Virginia when I was away and there was so much dirt being blown in my face one morning. It hurt and I was so dirty afterwards, with the sweat it was practically mud, lol.
