    @runtimer - my husband's shoes do the same in the same spot and he only walks in them! I was thinking of putting a bit of moleskin over his toenails to see if that might help. Or maybe duct tape inside for an added layer of strength :laugh:
    @briebee7 - love that you can run your daughter to summer camp!
    @HonuNui - Awesome picture! I do love those sea turtles!

    6/3 - 3 miles
    6/5 - 3 miles
    6/6 - .75 mi.
    6/7 - 2.55 mi
    6/8 - .5 mi
    6/13 - 3.1 Run and Ride 5k
    6/15 - 1mi before my strength session with my trainer. Not the best idea since she wanted to focus on legs and core this week LOL.
    6/17 - 2.0 mi
    6/17 - 2.4 mi

    Total 18.3 11.7 to go


    If you do 2 runs in a day do you get the same benefit as 1 long run? Translation : Did I really do an almost 4.5 mi run?

    Did some yoga last night and foam rolling. It helped a little bit but still feel a bit of tightness in my glute and upper hamstring. It seems to be focused only on the right side. I will continue to stretch and work t out.


    @skippygirlsmom I didn't see you at Panera this morning.

    6/7 - 7 miles - I'm so proud of this run it was at 10:21 pace, which is fast for me - I was comfortable the whole run :smiley:
    6/8 - 4.4 miles
    6/9 - 5.8 miles
    6/10 - 1.6 miles - rest day today - just keeping the 41 Days of Awesome challenge alive. I'm trying to do this mile at a faster than normal pace for me. Then I grabbed Macy and took her for a 2 mile walk.
    6/11 - 6 miles
    6/12 - 4.7miles
    6/13 - 4.6 miles
    6/14 - 9.6 miles very hot miles. I think it was about 83 when I went to run. Went to the Greenway to be in the shade. Sweat was dripping off my shorts by the time I was done. I was ticked I couldn't run the whole 10 miles so I went back out after getting my water for a fast paced .6 mile walk.
    6/15 - 1.6 miles - keeping the 41 Days of Awesome challenge alive :smile:
    6/16 - 5.6 miles

    @stoshew71 Yeah I suck. I don't know why it's so hard for me to get there. I did get up at 4:15 and just couldn't manage to make it out the door. I have no good excuses just lazy butt, especially since I'm working from home today. Made my butt even more lazy.

    @torituma4 my boyfriend is in Abu Dhabi and he's not a fan of the fasting. I don't know about all day fasting but I run fasted every morning. For the most part I also run 5K and 10K fasted. For me the biggest thing is hydration. I think your plan is the way to go.

    Does anyone here live in El Paso? I need to go there the 1st full week of July for business and was wondering if anyone lived there. I asked my boss if I'm safe running through town, he told me to run on Post. I made sure I got a hotel with fitness center in case I need to run on the dreadmill. I've been there once before but only for a long weekend.

    Yesterday ran 5k .. Actually ran 2.75 walked a bit in last quarter mile. On the one hand this is my new PR for distance without walking, on the other wondering why I didn't just finish.,,. Time was 32m not a PR. Race on Sat.
