    @taxmom9093 - Sorry to hear about the loss of your father. I still miss mine and that was 20 years ago. Hope the walks help.

    @Chris - You've got more miles than Janet or me! Way to go. :smile:

    OK, I finally am feeling a bit better. My knee still tightens up on the bike but it seemed to loosen up with walking. So, I put in 9 miles on the bike and 2 on the treadmill. Finally getting 11 miles on the board.

    Taxmom - so sorry to hear about your dad. Hoping the long walks and your memories bring comfort.
    Dean & Chris - yes, way behind. But I did get my son moved out of his dorm and survived the 12 hour drive. Hope to get in a run today or tomorrow.

    Yesterday was the grand opening of the Razorback Greenway- 36 miles of multi-use trails connecting 6 towns in Northwest Arkansas. I rode end to end and back! Ended up with almost 74.7 miles!

    05/02 - 2.0 miles walking

    Thanks to everyone that encouraged me through my training for my first half marathon. I had a great time today and improved my time at each check point. I soared through my last mile. The crowds were so fantastic and running with 40,000 others made it go fast. It was so much better than my 10 miler in November. I said this would be my first and last half but I had such a good time that I may train for another.

    May 3: 15.5 miles - Running 13.1 miles and walking 2.4 miles
    TTD: 26.1 miles

    @taxmom9093: I am so sorry about your dad. I will keep you and your family in prayer as you go through this difficult time. Losing our parents is always a difficult time. I pray that you will find some peace in your loving memories of him.

    Today was pretty terrific! Walked with the boys, had lunch with a friend, got all my exercising done and ate wisely!!
    Tomorrow our DD defends her dissertation. She will graduate on the 24th. So proud!

    So today was my Dad's funeral. I know it sounds odd to say that at 89 (90 if he had lived til May 31) it was sudden, but Monday morning we knew we had 4-6 more months before his heart was done and Tuesday morning we were planning a funeral. I see a lot of long walks coming up while I try to sort this all out.
    I'm so sorry for your loss!! :( That really must have been incredibly difficult. My heart goes out to you and your family.

    Thank you everyone. I'm at the point of taking everything one day at a time. I know fresh air and moving will help me remember him well and work through the shock.

    Added 3.5 miles yesterday. May total 6.5 miles.

    Today is a free day for me and it is beautiful outside. Off to the nature center.
