Hahaha! Yeah, I followed the plan at the beginning with 3 days in a row for a few weeks, then had some slight knee pain so I backed off. I didn't learn my lesson and have had a couple more weeks like that (without pain) so while I could have run today, I think the sensible choice is to wait until tomorrow. The next few…

@eleanorhawkins Have you tried to fly? *grin* I'm glad I popped in here this morning. I'm following the Higdon Novice 1 Half plan now and debating running my third day in a row today. My calves felt tighter than usual when I got up this morning, probably a result of my not stretching or foam rolling very much after my run…

@MobyCarp I read the news earlier and was speechless. I still don't have the words. He was always so encouraging and such an inspiration. I ran a 10k today. Not a race, though I tried to push the pace... sometimes too much so I walked quite a bit, yet still ended up with a PR of 1:09:19. Unfortunately, Strava doesn't…

Congrats on your PR, and your new great niece @kgirlhart! Today was my third day of running in a row. With my 5 miles this morning, since I moved my run last week from Thursday to Friday, apparently I've run 25 miles in the past week! WHOA! July mileage: 33.18/75

Welcome new runners! I'm in for 75 miles this month. :open_mouth:

I would like to redesign the app to remove/ change the Done button so it will post my replies if I'm in the middle of one. @PastorVincent I thought we were saying basically the same thing, with a different perspective or I would not have tagged you in my previous post. Thanks for being clear on your opinion. I disagree…

Wow. That sounds pretty miserable. I know @PastorVincent shared another site about dew point, but I came across this one recently that includes the temperature as well. Basically, it says to add them together and use that to determine your pace adjustment.…

Definitely!

@MegaMooseEsq Cool! I discovered her yoga videos through one of the running-specific ones a while ago, but only just started doing them more regularly this month. I randomly pick one (or one of my coworkers does) and it really seems to help a lot!

@martaindale Welcome back! I love seeing pictures of Alaska glaciers, and hope someday to get up there. @katharmonic Thank you! @Elise4270 Oh no! Poor kitty. Is his eye going to be ok? @Avidkeo Sounds like you're all moved in, and started the new job with a great first day. And new shoes for running to top it off? Yay!…

@Elise4270 Oh my, that sounds scary! Glad your kitty will be ok. @quilteryoyo Welcome back, and congrats on the distance! @d_hakman Welcome! @ContraryMaryMary Great job on your 10k in those difficult conditions. I hope you get over that sore throat/illness and feel better soon. Thank you, @PastorVincent, @polskagirl01,…

@MobyCarp thank you for your insight and experience. You make a lot of sense. There was a 5k near me yesterday but unfortunately I found it after it was already full. So... virtual 5k it is!

A virtual race! Yes! That is a great idea! That's what I did when I finished the C25K plan last fall/winter. I just went back to the same site and signed up for another. Thank you so much for the suggestion.

I had a coworker tell me she and her husband saw me running yesterday. I told her at that point I was debating to turn and go home for water or keep going. She said, "Yeah you were going really slow." Thanks! 🤨

I had one foot go numb wearing NB 1080's, and loosening the laces as well as shorter strides/higher cadence helped. My cadence was lower than yours initially. Altra Escalantes are my current shoe, which I absolutely love. I do want to try a pair of the Topo's though. Good luck figuring out what will work for you now!

I drove up to visit my parents yesterday (they live in a small town north of me), and had a hair appointment there beforehand. I had a few extra minutes before my appointment, so drove over to the nearby park and ran around it. Even as I was considering it, I thought, Who is this person? I knew I wasn't going to have a…
