Welcome to all the new kids.
Okay my goal was 60 last month and I'm at 80 now. I'm going to say 70 because the last week of the month I'll be in Florida finishing up packing my mom's house because thank the Lord it looks like it's sold and the closing is the end of June.7 -
I'm in for 60 miles this month!4

Ummm I've missed my 100 goal twice now. April was close, May, I missed significantly. So- knowing that and a few other things. June goal is 75.
Realistic goals-
1. live thru first ever half marathon on June 4th
2. Not follow thru with threat to "never run again" after June 4th
3. If persistent niggles continue to be persistent after June 4th be a good adult and actually get issue looked at.8 -
@MNLittleFinn Thank you!0

160 km Goal and start the Training cycle for the Emperor's Challenge HM. promises to be Fun
Welcome to all the new victums athlete's.6 -
Goal is to continue with the beginning of full marathon training while remaining injury-free. Since the first few weeks of marathon training is either less or about the same weekly mileage I've been running lately and I want to give a little bit of a buffer, I'll set my goal 105 miles...15 less than May.4

170 miles this month - still aiming at 2,017 for the year, so...
Happy June Running to all y'all from the steamy muggy South!6 -

From High Mileage Road Warriors to Low Mileage Plodders, Middle of the Pack Racers, Elites, Trail Hounds, Treadmill Thrashers, Track Circlers and Winter Warriors. Race Masters to Race Haters.
Some enter events just for the excuse to travel, collect a Race Bib, Finisher Medal and a Unique Shirt.
Others enter events for the additional Training Motivation from a hard date on a calendar.
Then there's some Lady in Australia who runs multiple HM distances in training just for the fun of it. ( she now has more HM distance fun run's than I have HM's ).
Mothers who are amazing and have amazing talented daughters. etc, etc.
We all fit into this group. No question is out of Bounds or Foolish.
Wisdom comes from Experience, Experience comes from making mistakes and self discovery.
As any athlete knows you will have good days/weeks and bad ones so - "Embrace The Suck"
Have Fun and Run - just a little further than last month/year.14 -
I'm in again - hopefully for a month of new and improved running! I have my next HM towards the end of July so I am going to continue my build and go with 110 and a stretch goal of 120.

Can I be in again please with a target of 80 miles?

I'm in for 70 miles this month. Nothing amazing, but happily maintaining a lower base while focussing on strength and cross-training. A 10km 'race' booked, but with the elevation that it has, I won't be 'racing' that in any way what-so-ever!6
-
Total WAG here, but going to say 113 miles based on my quick look at the calendar.
Welcome to all the new crazies5 -
I am in this month for 50 miles. That is subject to change if my hammies don't do as well as I am hoping they will. I should get a good idea of where I am at tomorrow. It has been 6+ weeks since Boston and I am very pleased with my restraint not to run. And I didn't even kill anyone, so May was a total (zero mile) victory! Bring on June!
Welcome to all the new members! So good to see so many new faces. @silkennash - Good luck on your first marathon!8 -
I'm back. I'll set a goal of 30 miles so as to not overwhelm myself.11
-
I am in for 150 miles this month. May the Texas weather have mercy on me.8

Hey, I'd like to join/follow this thread. I've completed day one of week 2 of the C25k program. I don't know how many miles that would be for June, but I think I'd like to shoot for being on week 5 of the program at June 30. That is conservative enough I hope. I currently walk about 6 miles a day most days. So far I'm enjoying it, though it is a much different muscle set that is sore afterward.10
