As you can see, this area does not have much traffic. You might find more help in the monthly running challenge thread, as it is much better populated. As far as trying programs for the half marathon google Hal Higdon. He has numerous plans based on your ability and they are free. His plans are what I used to finish my…

Will set a goal for April of 130 miles. This month will be the first time since September of last year I am not under some type of training plan for either a half or full marathon, so I am just kind of pulling this number out of thin air. I still plan on sort of structuring my weekly running the same as a training plan…

10 miles on Wednesday and 5 miles on Thursday brings March total to 132. Legs feeling OK post marathon. Have a 5K on April 7th and would like to try for a PR of under 22 min. Conditions probably not the best for this race as I will have just finished a 12 hour night shift, but I will give it a shot. No run today except…

@katharmonic Glad she is OK. As I was reading your account I was thinking, please let this end well, and am so glad it did.

Thank you everyone for all the congrats. My race went so well, I now have it in my mind to try to take an additional 15 min off my time over the next year or two and try for a Boston age group qualifying time of 3:30. I don’t know if this is realistic or not. I may look into getting an online running coach. @PastorVincent…

Ran and finished my first marathon yesterday in 3 hours 45 minutes. Just for reference where I came from I included a photo of me before I started weight loss and running and a current pic after the race.

Hello again all of you monthly challenge runners. I have been on a hiatus from posting here due to overall craziness in my life what with a new job I started in January and my marathon training plan. Hope everyone has been doing OK and I look forward to going back and catching up on how everyone is doing. Due to the…

Merry Christmas to everyone. Hope you got everything you all wanted. Since I am a relatively new runner, I racked up on running apparel and gear, from a hydration belt to cool weather gear, and I love it all. My sister even surprised me with a registration for a 1/2 in Wilmington in March. I normally would have been…

Haven’t posted here since last month. Just been too busy as my job I have had since August is just not working out for me, so I am actively looking again. Still getting some running miles in but not the amount I want. I will set my goal for Dec at 100 and try to follow the thread more closely and update more often. Dec…

That is awesome about Skip. I know you are so proud!

@rheddmobile Welcome to the group. Congrats to you and your husband on completing C25K and to you on the weight loss. That is truly awesome!

Ran my first official half marathon and finished in 1 hour 42 minutes. Avg pace was around 7:50 min per mile. In Feb I could not complete a 5K without walking breaks. Next is a full marathon in March.

@skippygirlsmom Geez, hate to hear that about your job. Hope everything works the out the best for you. Higher management just doesn’t make rational decisions sometimes.

Awesome result. You definitely deserved that beer!

Thanks, How did your half marathon go. I hope you met your goals and got that post race beer.

Thanks, I am really surprised I did so well. I am always in awe of the mileage totals you put up and don’t ever think I could match that type of endurance. I have signed up for a marathon in March and that will be my max distance I will ever shoot for. Right now I feel pretty good but I can’t fathom doubling the race…

Short race report. Turkey Trot HM in Pinehurst NC The race was the best organized event I have been in. You can tell they have been putting it on for 37 years. Very happy with the race itself. Course was in rolling hills and I can see why golf course designers love the area, but for me not knowing the course some of the…
