Hello, I'm new, and looking for accountability & support after running injury
I decided that I would start running again this year. I joined a running group, trained for a 10k race and was having a great time. Unfortunately I was also experiencing unrelenting shin splints that only got worse. I ended up getting a terrible stomach bug the week of the race and missed it. I decided to use it as an…

NSV - running
I ran/walked 23.5 miles last week and I believe that is the furthest I've ever gone in one week in my entire life.

I finished out with a long run (for me) of 60 minutes and covered 6.45…
