I watched the video and I'll most likely be referring back to it in the future. Also, regarding the KDF, it looks like the course is the same when I ran it in 2014. I remember the few miles before/after the HM point in Iroquois park having the most noticeable hills, specifically the hill heading into the park. However, pretty much the rest of the course felt very flat and was enjoyable. Only complaint was that I wish they left Churchill Downs for near the end but I understand why they do it before the HMers split.
@OSUbuckeye906 Glad you found the video useful and thanks for the heads up on KDF. I am looking forward to it. I was doing a little research, and from what I saw on the course profile, there was just a single major hill going into the park.She says to do those before your run, but they don't seem like dynamic stretches, are they?
@Orphia You're right, those are not dynamic stretches. So I would do them after your run, not before.
@zipsterj Glad you enjoyed our running challenge. Loom forward to you joining us next month.
@girlinahat Congratulations on making goal and finishing your muddy race.

Speaking of next month, is there a thread up for that yet? I'm going to need to increase my distance, despite that it is a short month. If I'm going to have a decent time in that 12K trail run on 4/1, I really need to get serious about training.0

Yesterday I posted that barring some kind of disaster, I should meet my monthly goal today since I only need 3.3 miles. Well, this morning that disaster was named Stella. I was hoping that I might get her to do 3-4 miles with me, but she usually starts getting impatient and jumpy around 1.5 miles, so my plan B was to leave her in the yard and finish up solo. She was good for 1.4 miles this morning, but after I left her in the yard, I was only on the next street up when I heard her carrying on like a nut. I don't think she saw me go back out because she was focused on something in the woods, so she thought I was in the house and she was sitting by the door carrying on. At any rate, I finished up with 1.8 miles this morning. I am planning to drag her little doggie butt out for another 1.5 miles this evening. Tomorrow she will be walked by a teenage girl who helps us out with her so I will not have to hurry home from work and can sneak a run in without her. Yes, this is one spoiled puppy!2

1/1 - Still wasn't feeling up to it.
1/2 - Bodypump, the 2.25 miles on the 'mill
1/3 - 4.5 miles on the treadmill (Trek class). That'll clean your lungs out.
1/4 - Stayed in bed. Lingering cold + a bratty greyhound = not enough sleep.
1/5 - Bodypump, then 2.25 treadmill miles.
1/6 - 4.2 'mill miles. -3° F is way below my comfort level to run outside
1/7 - Bodypump, then 2.25 treadmill miles.
1/8-1/13 - Sick, sick, sick.
1/14 - 3.4 'mill miles, then a quick upper body weight session.
1/15 - Church / family day.
1/16 - Too icy to run, too icy to drive. Barely left house.
1/17 - 4.8 miles on the treadmill (Trek class). Fingers crossed my illness is done.
1/18 - Hangin' at the hospital with my Mom while Dad had surgery.
1/19 - 4.01 miles outside! Woo hoo!
1/20 - 4.1 miles. 37° F at 5 a.m. on January 20? Yes, please!!
1/21 - 3.4 miles on the treadmill, then upper body weights
1/22 - Church / family / basketball day
1/23 - 4.03 miles.
1/24 - 4.52 miles.
1/25 - Early a.m. appointment at clinic. Afternoon/evening kids' activities.
1/26 - Nada.
1/27 - Ditto.
1/28 - 3.46 miles. Temperature was fine, but that 20 mph NW wind was not my friend.
1/29 - Church / family / basketball
1/30 - 5.02 miles.
1/31 - 3.5 miles. Windy.
55.69/75 for the month. I'll take it.

OK! February Challenge is now posted.

Got 5.25 miles done yesterday. I won't be able to run today because of my therapy, so my total for January is 88.65 miles. I would have been happier closer to 100. I skipped too many runs this month because of depression.2

I did it!! I didn't think i was going to hit my goal since I had to take 5 days off running to nurse my knee back to health. As I got closer, I realized it was possible if I added some tenths of miles here and there. Normally, Tuesday is XT day for me, but 3 little miles to meet my monthly goal is no biggie.
Congrats to all who met your monthly goals, and for those that didn't, February is a new month, and hopefully you had some fun running along the way.1 -
65 mi so far. will probably do 2-3 tonight.

So currently, I like running with a group, especially my long runs because the time just flies by. On the other hand, if I am training for something with a pace goal, I think running solo is my preference. Not only does it allow me to run at my desired pace, but I think the mental aspect of grinding out those 20 mile runs alone really helps come race day.
ETA: @kristinegift- I just read your response to this question after posting above. Pretty much ditto for me!
@lporter229 Great minds think alike!0 -

@OSUbuckeye906 I typically run by myself. My husband has some pretty bad knee issues going on, but I liked doing slow runs with him, and our son rode his bike with us. I don't have many friends who run, and I think the few I know that do run are chicken because they think I'll go too fast for them, even though I assure them that I'll go their pace. I've been to a few social runs, but the timing doesn't work out too much. They are usually in the evenings after work, and it's so hot here in the spring, summer, fall. When I can go, the mileage is shorter than I'd like.
Last year, I saw a group that did trail runs on the weekends where I like to go. Next time I see them, I need to find out when they meet.0 -

Thanks to everybody who weighed in on my question about running with a group or alone. It's nice to hear everyone's perspectives on the topic. I echo what a lot of you said about running alone for "me time" or to focus on speed work/tempo runs specific to your training plan. Also, I value being able to plan my runs when it fits best into my schedule, especially finding the best time to do long runs on the weekends. There's a meetup group as well as a group from a nearby running store that both do informal pub runs one evening a week, so I may start out by trying one of those to see how I like running with a group. It would also be nice to try out a long run with a group at some point to help myself keep a consistent pace (something I'm really bad at without constantly looking at my watch). I ran a half marathon with my step-sister last year, who is about the same pace that I am, and I enjoyed running with her more than I thought I would because she really helped me to keep a consistent and manageable pace throughout most of the race.

Finished off the month with a mile on the treadmill whilst at the gym. Was a frustrating month to say the least as I was ill/recovering for literally the whole month - in turn this meant I had to abandon my plans for a March marathon. In context though, almost 150k of running is pretty amazing considering I didn't run 9 months ago!
I think I'm finally feeling better so going to ease myself back into distance running over the next few weeks whilst I work out what my new goals are going to be. If I can get the schedules to work I'll try to get in 3/4 half marathons over spring/summer and a marathon in the Autumn.

4-Jan: 5.3k treadmill intervals [TM]

Goal: Run 50 miles I guess? 35.6 done.
So I ran 5 miles last night and that made 16 miles for my first solid week back running after 2 months of hit and miss. I was thinking run 4.5 more tonight to hit 40 of the 50 mile goal. But then I was thinking I was feeling my shins telling me I was doing too much too soon. VERY MILD like a 1 on a scale of 1-10.
I can't run Wed or Thurs, so do I push it and run at least 3 miles tonight, or do I take 3 days off and resume on Friday0 -
Sad to learn that the SmartCoach tool on Runner's World's page has been permanently closed. I'm not aware of anything similar, at least not for free. I'm going to miss it.
Does anyone know of a training schedule making tool similar to SmartCoach?0 -

I'm not familiar with it. Endomondo has a custom training tool though that I've used (I don't know if it is similar. you tell it race date, distance, how far you currently run per week, how fast, how many days/week you want to train and it suggests a schedule and updates weekly depending on your progress).

@ritzvin Is the tool on Endomondo for premium subscribers only? What you described is pretty much what RW SmartCoach would do, with a few variables.0

I think it is now that I think about it- if memory serves, it's only ~$3/month though, and I also like their graphs (especially personal bests over time).0 -
I totally underestimated what I could accomplish in January:
- I can run a full distance now without taking 1 minute walking breaks
- Sunday was the longest distance I've run so far at just over 9 km
- I signed up for a number of races to try, including a half marathon in September
- Started a training plan for my half marathon
- Went way over my distance goal this month
Good luck to everyone with their goals for February!

Today's notes: Ending January on a rest day. This is the first month since April that I've run less than 100 miles. Oh, well, getting injured does that. Here's to a better February!

A few recovery miles to add to my total. My hip wasn't too happy after my long run and some cross-training on Sunday, so an extra rest day yesterday was in order and seems to have helped. It felt fine today on a run, stretch, repeat recovery run.
So pleased with having smashed my goal, although I did forget there were 5 long run days in January because of the way the month fell.
