There's no way I can run the whole globe tomorrow. I have to work.
But I do have 12 miles planned.9 -

This made my day1 -
Okay, Im in, never done, but will set at 100 and see where that puts me, probably low I hope but will know more once I get started.!6

I will join with a goal of 20 miles in June. I'm not a runner but going to give it a try.

We're such a cool group.
Thanks for gathering us together again, Stan.
I'm reaching a bit further this month - going for 115.
Good luck, y'all!7 -
Sign me up for 30. Seems puny but my lazy streak has to end somewhere
. I've been running for 28 years...up until the last two. Hurt my hip getting the dang Christmas Tree into the stand year before last. Was tempted to say I'd hurt it in a 50K...but it was attack of the killer tree. No running equals big lady pants. I'm not that old yet...the big old pants gotta go. Looking forward to watching everyone succeed! Thanks for starting this. 7 -

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.4 -
Changing my goal to 1006

AAAAAAAAND my first race is on 6/26, which is a 4 miler.

Just signed up for the Lehigh Valley Via Marathon as my 3rd attempt at BQing for the 2017 Boston Marathon, so back to training I will go! June will be a ramp up month before I hit it hard in July and August. Count me in for re-entry into the 200 Club this month!9

I shall observe Global Running Day by honoring my planned rest day tomorrow. Right now, honoring that rest day is what I need to do in order to be able to run regularly. So I figure *not running* tomorrow is the most appropriate thing for me to do on Global Running Day.8 -
May was a tough month. I'm not where I want to be as May closes out, but I am moving in the right direction. Best guess, June will land somewhere between 100 and 150 miles. I'll put the nominal goal out as 100 miles, just because it bugs me when I don't meet goals.
The real goal is to continue recovery from injury and get to where running feels normal again. Ideally, I'd like to complete that one in June; but if it takes longer than that, so be it. It won't be a disaster if I have to take a DNS for the Medved 5K to Cure ALS on June 19; but I'll be annoyed if I can't run 13.1 miles for Shoreline Half on July 16. I don't need to run Shoreline fast, I just need to complete it to stay in the Four Seasons Challenge.6 -
If you're not into national (renamed global?) running day, here are some other options!

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 @poppetsmaster2 -
