    3.6 today

    If I do *all* my planned runs this week and the bit of next, I might just about squeeze over the 100 mile line.

    7/16: 6 miles
    7/18: 6 miles
    7/20: 12 miles

    That's 24 miles this week

    That's 70 miles total. Which puts me at my goal. I guess I erred on the side of too much caution. Can I bump my goal up to 85, just to give me some more motivation?

    I bumped it -! (: excellent!! CONGRATS!

    I ran a 1 mile race tonight. Last year my time was 8:03 - this year finished in 7:17. I did over a 1 mile warm up but will guess conservatively and go for a total of 2 miles today.

    That's a big improvement over a year's time! Nicely done!

    Thanks. I am really happy. Next year under 7 for sure! But OMG that race hurts. I'd rather do 10k race than race a mile.

    I agree - that is well done!! CONGRATS! Yeah shorter races HURT, but so good! LOL!

    I'm at 52 miles for the total month!

    Only 9 miles this week so far. I wasn't feeling too well this week but I am determined to make it as close as possible to 105 this month!

    Yes!

    Recovery Day Run: 3 miles in 34:40, Avg Pace 11:34, Splits 11:36 - 11:37 - 11:27, 73F, DP 69, dawn run.

    Supposed to rain all day later on, so got my run in early before it starts. Gave me a chance to try out my new Amphipod Xinglet Flash LED. Those flashing red LED lights are bright! The Xinglet fit well over my shirt and caused no fitment issues during the run. I like it, will use on every dark run.

    Saw some sleepy ducks with a Great Blue Heron standing guard. And in the background, lots of little birdies going tweet tweet tweet. Oh, and cobwebs, lots of cobwebs.

    WTD4: 3 miles
    MTD: 93.4

    Logged 3.2 miles on Friday 7/20.

    Total for month 30. Miles to go: 20

    Thanks. These cramps are like nothing I've had before. This is the third day that I can hardly walk. I'll have to go pickup a foam roller.

    i've heard that dill pickle juice works wonders for cramps... don't know if it would work for you but it might be worth a try?

    also make sure you are properly hydrated (before running, really works for my cramps).
    Thanks. I do swig some pickle juice when I'm cramping if I have some.
    I'm properly hydrated (drink lots everyday and weigh myself before and after runs).
    I think I might be able to run by Wednesday, which might be too late to get in the 30 more miles I wanted to get this month.
