Howdy all you runners out there.

Did a very slow 3 miles today. (50 minutes) I ran with the slowest person in our group to keep her company since I am injured. Tried to push her along and do a little more but some people already think they are pushing themselves. Oh well, I can only be a motivator to a degree.

No more running for me until Sunday. Going to do a run on a softer surface and see how far I can get. Have a great run everyone.:flowerforyou:

    Sherry, glad to see you're out and about. Aren't you supposed to be taking it easy? Hope you are on the mend soon.
    6.6 mile tempo run today - new (fast) running partner in the group, so we have picked up the tempo over the past couple of weeks. Great run.

    Hi Everyone!

    I haven't run yet. It is spring break and my daughter is home from school. We've been out shopping all morning.

    The way I've been eating today - I'll be sure to run for 20 minutes with the girls I coach tonight. Otherwise, I'll be eating a 300 calorie dinner.:laugh:

    -Kechie. :heart:

    That's why it took me 50 minutes to run 3 miles. :laugh:

    On easy days I run about a 10 minute mile when I feel healthy. The leg actually feels good today but I won't push it. I promise. The Philadelphia Broad Street (10M) run is only 3 weeks away. I haven't registered yet though. I have already paid for 1 race this year that I didn't run and that really stinks!

    I donated blood yesterday, so took it easy today as well - ran 3.5 miles in about 40 minutes after an easy 65 minute swim.

    Will have my long run on Saturday - 10 miles. Gearing up for a half on May 2nd.

    I'm actually sore, for some reason, from my run yesterday. My entire body. So I'm taking off today. I'll be getting my Polar Bra today, so I'm excited to run again tomorrow!

    no running for me today, but I did a 1.5 hour bike ride with my husband, his big boss, and a few of the people in his unit

    I was going to ask the very same thing....do they keep the girls from bouncing too much, because I'd spend money on a bra that does that, i'm 5'3 113 pounds with a DD cup. :noway: ....it's freaking insane, they get in the way all the time!! Please let meknow about the bra! :laugh: :happy: and today was a non running day, but I taught 2 yoga classes and a body sculpt and hopped on the eliptical for a half hour.

    I played basketball for an hour then did pretty fast 2 mile run (for me! haha - I pushed myself).

    I am a 36C and I wear 2 sports bras. I used to not do that, but now, I feel nekkid if I don't when I'm balling or running.

    5 miles on the treadmill. Felt great. I really miss running while we're doing p90x. Thankfully by the time the weather warms up, we'll be done with round 1.

    I'm guessing a polar bra is the one that has slits for the heartrate monitor to go through so you don't have to wear the strap. I could be wrong though.

    Good luck in your marathon!

    I ran 3 today because I started P90X with 2 of the coaches at the high school today. It really kicked my a** and I thought I was in pretty good shape:grumble:

    Did Day 1 of Week 3 of the Couch to 5K with son. Easing back into running after a great 10K on Sunday. Must have still been in race mode though because son kept asking why our pace was faster than normal.:tongue:
