Good morning and welcome to week 3 of our challenge!
We had a 60% success rate this week!! We are all doing great and I fully expect every single one of you to keep up the good work!! To those of you who didn't complete the challenge: STEP UP YOUR GAME!!!
A very special shout out to Mariam and Thamre for completing a 5k and kicking butt!! Also, I'm gonna toot my own horn here: I went for my first post-op run yesterday and I managed to run 5 miles! My pace was slower than my usual, but I'm not terribly concerned about that now.
Anyway, this week, I wanna challenge you to do 12 miles by Sunday night. We can do it!!
Happy trails!

don't think I checked in too much over the weekend. I had a pretty good one. Ran my 5k Saturday morning. I actually did better than I thought I would since I haven't ran most of the summer. I thought I finished in 31 minutes. I just checked out the race results and my time was 30:07! I also managed to go for a 10 mile bike ride Saturday afternoon. Sunday I went for a 4 mile walk.
mariawells - good job on the 5 mile run!0 -

Happy Tuesday!!
Not having the best morning here. I feel drained and I'm not sure why. Maybe my coffee hasn't kicked in? Also, I have a dentist apointment at 4 (eeek!!!)
thamre- You are so incredibly active. It's amazing!!
kbeach08-That's the spirit!! Do you have a smart phone? I use runkeeper (it's free!) and I love it There's also mapmyrun.com, where you can make loops around your area and figure out their distance.
fit_chica69- There you go!! You can do this!!
Mariam- Way to say goodbye to your 20s! Is this the best shape you've been in? You're truly inspiring.
Sinead- I will listen to the song as soon as I get home. Are you mainly a singer or do you play any instruments too? Also, great job getting miles in!

Eeep! Sorry! I know I owe you so many miles! I got one in yesterday, but that's about it. I'll get lots of walking in at camp later in the week and I'll try to calculate the miles by how long I walk for. (My casual pace is about 3.0).0

I did not get in any walking last night (or running). I was so tired when I got home from work. I laid down and sleep for an hour before hubby got home. But today is a new day - already did 30ds this morning and plan on getting my walk in after work :happy:0

I mainly sing but I play piano too =]0

today i walked 4.5 miles so my total is now 8.8 miles for the week.0

So why is Wednesday called hump day?
I went for a 4 mile run and did ok. I managed to keep an 8:30 min/mile pace but I had to really really push myself and I had some breathing cramps, which means my cardiovascular strenght has severly decreased. I'm still sore so I've been doing tons of stretching. I also went for a 2 mile walk with my in-laws' dogs. Overall, a decent day.
Samantha- Have fun at camp and get lots of walking!!
Thamre- Good job getting yourself up early to do 30DS. I know you've had a busy schedule.
Sinead- That's awesome!! Is this your band? Are you studying or pursuing a career in music?
Charlotte- Great job! Do you feel all settled in now?
Mariam- That's so great that you joined the running club! I have you down for 11.5k (7.14 miles). I hope you had an awesome time!
