    I'm going for 80. A modest increase from 70 in May, but my true goal is to have a more consistent month now I'm done with all the racing, tapering, reverse tapering etc that I have been doing for the last couple of months. I want to use the summer to get a stronger base for my Autumn race training.

    I am going to push for 120. We will be out of town for my daughter's graduation for 2 weeks but I am hoping I can get some runs in around the celebration and during our week of vacation afterwards.

    I am in! I have a 10km and my daughters are working through C25K programme.
    My targets this month:
    Run/walk total 110km
    Run 6km continuously, previously I have ran 10km continuously but not for over 18 months!
    Happy running

    I still haven't worked out how to set up the tracker!

    With surgery in 6 days, I'm out on running for the month. But, to say I participated:

    Goal: 0 miles running
    Other Goals: Heal well; Lose the crutches; Lose the stitches and boot; Work on ROM (PT exercises daily, when approved).

    Fighting the urge to get in one last short run before surgery... I've been off running for over a month now and the thought of two more months is making me a bit batty.

    Both of these sound *awful*, lol!

    But I think @ceciliaslater 's may be the harder of the two. Hugs, girl!

    I only made 40/50 last month, but I'm an optimist, so I'm going to say that if all works out as I'd like I should be able to put in 75 in June.

    Tomorrow is my birthday. I will not be running. Bourbon is an acceptable gift.
    Woodford Reserve on its way...

    Better hurry up. You might get kicked out of the club. No tracker = big slacker.

    I added it up manually!

    There's no way I can run the whole globe tomorrow. I have to work.

    But I do have 12 miles planned.


    This made my day

    I may have to boycott running tomorrow. Global Running Day? Seriously... can't they leave anything alone? I see this and picture thousands of wannabe runners singing "Cumbaya", holding hands and all crossing the finish line together so everyone feels like they won... lol... Yeah... I know... I am a cynical old b@stard.... but that shlt drives me up a wall... Whoever came up with this lame-*kitten* idea is so effing clueless they obviously have no idea that everyday is motherfcking running day... globally even... lol...

    Ok... bourbon-laced rant is over. (And I am scheduled for 6 tomorrow so I will be out there at sunrise embracing the nonsense... :) )

    I would like to give you props for not allowing a single kitten, mole, or newt to slip into your rant. Very impressive, indeed.

    You will wake up to run and I will whine and tell you not to and you will say " but ... But running" and you will go.I do not buy for one second that you will not run @poppetsmaster
