    Well crap on a cracker, Christmas nuts, pooper scoopers, *kitten* balls and the like.....I have been instructed to ice and rest my foot or I will end up with a stress fracture. *shakes fist and curses loudly then cries*. I'm allowed to power walk, but absolutely no running until the swelling goes down and the pain is gone. COCKAROACH! So I guess I will power walk my last 4k tomorrow and I might have to adjust my May goal. :'(

    Not bad for laying out a few weeks. Hopefully, next month I'll be able to start building more miles.

    @cooter_mom sorry to hear about the injury. I'm babying my butt. Its hard to lay off, I've been trying to swim more. Perhaps you can run in the pool. Its almost fun ^_^

    4/10 - 4 miles on indoor track
    4/12 - 11 miles, on the windy side, but otherwise nice
    4/13 - 2 recovery miles - maybe should have skipped it...ouch!
    4/14 - power outage = no alarm = unplanned rest
    4/15 - 4 miles on indoor track
    4/16 - 5 miles on treadmill (nice mix of hills, tempo and a few short "sprints")
    4/17 - 4 miles on indoor track; weather forecast is making the 12-miler for the weekend look difficult to get in :/

    4/20 - 4 miles on indoor track
    4/21 - 4 miles on indoor track

    4/23 - 5 easy miles on treadmill ("base pace" with a few burst of tempo and sprints...no hills)
    4/24 - 4.5 miles on indoor track (Total 89/110)
    4/26 - 13.41 miles, HM.
    4/28 - 4 miles on indoor track
    4/29 - 4 miles on indoor track - finally hit my monthly goal for once! No viruses to keep from running!
    4/30 - 4.8 miles of "hilly" treadmill - would it kill the Y to turn up the A/C?!?
    Total - 114.96 of 110 goal...woo hoo! Biggest month ever!

    So I'm really sad to say- I've avoided the thread a little bit- because I ran 2 times this month- I've been so busy with dance- I just pretty much ran those 5 miles and that was it. :( sad panda face. 5 of 40. shameful.

    Very VERY happy with the dance things that have happened- but again- not so much with the running. Izokay- May is a new month. And we shall do all the running!

    Congrats everyone on doing such a great job!

    @JoRocka have you noticed the recent NJ related conversations? I was hoping you spotted and would respond. :-) Scroll back starting with page 36 of this thread and keep reading the conversations between me, @kristinegift and @skippygirlsmom cause it goes on for another couple more pages in this thread. :-)

    Rounded out the month with an easy 4 miler! Except...it wasn't so easy! :smiley: But I made it anyway. I might rethink my middle distance run this weekend with the two halfs coming up so soon. Maybe knock it down to a 4 miler perhaps. I'll use my resting heart rate as my guide...which I should have done this morning! :tongue:

    4/1 - 6 miles

    5.65 miles for me on this last day of the April Challenge. Brings my total to 89.68. Not the 100 I was shooting for, but I am
    so excited about the progress I made. I've been debating if I want to lower the total for next month and had pretty well
    decided to, but just now decided nope...gonna shoot for the 100 again.

    @Stoshew71 I had not- I'll skim backwards. I really did- I totally ducked my head and shame and didn't even come encourage- it goes by so fast around here and since I wasn't running I just hung my head in shame and didn't read. I'll go back and do so now. ;)

    @kristinegift since you are in Princeton technically you don't have an exit. In case you don't know the big joke (at least for people who live outside of Jersey) is that everyone lives off an exit off the garden state parkway, so when you say you are from Jersey people say "what exit?"

    technically it's the turnpike if you want to get semanitical about it. but yes- that's the stock answer- what exit... although someone was right- princeton isn't really "off" an exit. you just take somewhere between 7-8A depending on which way you're going N/S.

    Sorry @kristinegift for the 13th statement in the link above.

    It's a hoagie (but I grew up with subs- so I flip flop for sure)

    The pork roll was something new to me- and even after being here for many moons I didn't know what it was really till I moved to the 'sad black people and corruption" section of the map. It's honestly not really a NJ thing- it's a Trenton thing. B/c it's called a Trenton Pork Roll and nothing else. LOL

    it's a special place here for sure.

    75 miles again for me, but this time I'm only counting the miles I run. Walking miles are just a bonus.

    exercise.png
    4/1 - 3 miles - total: 3 miles
    4/3 - 4 miles - total: 7 miles
    4/6 - 7.5 miles - total 14.5 miles
    4/7 - 7 miles - total 21.5 miles
    4/8 - 6.2 miles - total 27.7 miles
    4/9 - 4.75 miles - total 32.45
    4/11 - 7.5 miles - total 39.95

    Amendment: If I walk a total of less than 5 minutes out of 90, I'm not going to try to take the walk breaks back out of my mileage total.

    4/12 - 4.5 miles - total 44.45

    Another amendment: I can't differentiate running time and walking time when I run outdoors, so I'm counting the whole thing. I think I prefer the treadmill, overall.

    4/13 - 7 miles - total 51.45
    4/14 - 2 miles - total 53.45
    4/15 - 2 miles - total 55.45
    4/16 - 2 miles - total 57.45
    4/19 - 2.5 miles - total 59.95
    4/21 - 7 miles - total 66.95
    4/23 - 4 miles - total 70.95
    4/25 - 6.7 miles - total 77.65
    4/26 - 8 miles - total 85.65
    4/28 - 4.58 miles - total 90.23
    4/30 - 5.03 miles - total 95.26

    Yeah, I grew up with the "Russians, Polacks, and Toxic Fumes", then moved to "Bankers and Businessmen" then to "Springstein Country" before moving to the actual Alabama, not "Pretty Much Alabama". LOL
    Oh, I also spent 6 years in W. Lafayette, IN (for college) after HS then moving back into the Toxic Fumes and communiting to "Bankers and Businessmen" for work. Then visiting my girl friend (now wife) on a regular basis who lived in "Christie Country" at the time.

    Done with my planned mileage.

    Did my final 4 miles in the sunny heat & humidity yesterday (82/72%) so I'd feel better about the short mileage. Rest day today, although ended up hitting a buffet before/during game 7 of the bolts/wings game last night, so may do a bit of swimming & biking today to repent (just not quite as much as @SBRRepeat - nor likely to catch any llama sightings).

    4/1 - 8 miles
    4/2 - 5 miles
    4/4 - 8 miles
    4/5 - 20 miles
    4/7 - 5 miles
    4/8 - 8 miles
    4/9 - 5 miles
    4/12 - 20 miles
    4/14 - 5 miles
    4/15 - 8 miles
    4/16 - 6 miles
    4/18 - 4 miles
    4/19 - 12 miles
    4/21 - 4 miles
    4/22 - 5 miles
    4/23 - 4 miles
    4/25 - 3 miles
    4/26 - 8 miles
    4/28 - 3 miles
    4/29 - 4 miles

    Total: 145 miles
    Goal: 145 miles
    DONE!
