@Stoshew71 will do! OK, it was in the upper 60s and sunny. So we all went hiking today with my hubby's daughters and the dogs. So I decided to make it a run/walk trail run while they were walking with us. There was definitely a lot of walking as some of the hills were steep, there were lots of roots, and while it was dry,…

@Stoshew71 thank for the link-I did make an account to hopefully get any future info and keep it in mind. It looks like the cost for entry for the HM doesn't change til June, so I have a while to decide. And the cutoff time is 4 hours, so even if I can't run it all I could finish. @Virkati Sorry you are having such a rough…

I love seeing all your guys' dogs running! And I love, love, love the stories about the dog running the marathon, and the 8 year old too! Thanks for posting them, they are too cool. If I ever run a half marathon (one day maybe!) it may have to be that one. I can pair it with a work trip to Birmingham, and then afterwards…

It's been a really rough and stressful week. And exhausting. Sigh. We've had a little bit of snow from that snowmageddon storm hitting the east coast, but may get more tomorrow. I'd rather just skip that, but I don't think it'll be as bad as most places. At least I got a run in tonight-maybe I won't be too far behind. It's…

I have had some soreness on the top of my foot, near the outside ankle though. It was really painful Saturday, but still sore tonight. Once I got going though it wasn't as…

Thanks @GBrady43068 -some days are just like that. Sometimes it's all just a head game, and sometimes your body just needs something-more…

Well tonight's run just sucked b@!!$. My legs were fine, my breathing was fine, but I just felt funky, almost low blood sugarish but-not-quite funky. Ugh. Hopefully the next one will be better. Stopped at 3 miles and barely managed that. Suuhhuuhhhuuuhhhuuuhhhckked. :s 1/2 6.5 miles 1/3 3.5 miles 1/7 4.0 miles 1/10 4.0…

1/2 6.5 miles 1/3 3.5 miles 1/7 4.0 miles 1/10 4.0 miles It was chilly out and windier than usual. Brrr. That's a total of 18 miles out of a 55 mile goal.

I'll take one women's v neck large in power blue.

Like the power blue as a favorite.

I just want to thank everyone with their input on snot rockets and how to dress for running in winter weather! You guys are awesome and very, very entertaining. I love it. I kept caught up with reading although life and, oddly enough for this time of year, allergies got in the way the last couple of days. I'm still on…

Thanks @WhatMeRunning. One thing I've learned is just not to sweat the speed. I'm working on getting those miles in and assume some increase in speed will come in the long run, just like so many of the more experienced runners in this group say. I daresay I'll never be really fast, and that's ok. I do hope I get to a point…

I'd love one too. I like the footsteps/challenge accepted, and a bright or royal blue is great, but I'll go with the neon colors option as well. I'm in the US, for shipping stuff.

I'm going to aim for 55 miles this month. 1/2 6.5 miles Longest non-stop run so far. Yay! Also upped my speed a little bit as I was thinking I'd only run 5 tonight, soooo while I'm still a turtle to you many hares in this group, it's a slightly faster turtle. Was 15 min/mile on my long runs, tonight just under 14 min/mi.…

@runner_girl83 the pie was yummy! A mixed berry pie....yummmmmmm. Sadly it is all gone now. Or maybe taht's a good thing! 12/2 4 miles 12/6 6 miles 12/10 6 miles 12/11 3.5 miles 12/17 5 miles 12/18 3.5 miles 12/20 3.5 miles 12/21 3.5 miles 12/25 3.5 miles 12/16 4 miles

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone celebrating today! I hope you all had a wonderful time with family and friends. It's still warm here in North Carolina. I'm not going to complain, as at least it's not raining like it is so many places in the southeast. I'm sure we'll get more of that soon though. Wasn't…

I did as well earlier, but fortunately have done enough to make the goal still doable. I'm trying to get in some shorter runs (well for me there's…

Aww shucks thanks! But guess we're all here to motivate each other. Got a run in tonight, and the ankle was fine, but it was one of those runs that was just bleh and mentally painful to get through. But it's done. Tomorrow my mom is headed into town so we've got to do a bit of cleaning before she gets here (she's driving…

Thanks @runner_girl83, and @skippygirlsmom, I'm fine! I'm just occasionally klutzy and trip over a raised block in the sidewalk or don't pay attention to where I'm going and partially step off the sidewalk, and bam ankle rolls and down I go! There's still soreness, and it's a good thing I don't play tennis or basketball…

OK, I think I am officially more of a danger to myself when I'm walking than I ever have been running! Managed to yet again step off a sidewalk funny last Sunday and twisted my ankle. Sigh. So no run that night and between that and traveling, I didn't do anything til tonight. I'll catch up though-I think I can, I think I…

12/2 4 miles 12/6 6 miles 12/10 6 miles 12/11 3.5 miles

12/2 4 miles 12/6 6 miles 12/10 6 miles Gotta stop being such a slacker....between travel and just being lazy, I'm not getting a lot of days running in. Fortunately, I can at least run a few longer runs, for me anyway, to catch up for now. Gonna keep on going. :)

12/2 4 miles 12/6 6 miles I guess unlike most of you guys, I really don't mind the treadmill so much. I'm just used to it. I turn on the music, tell myself I can't look at the mileage until I get through however many songs I need to that will get me close to the end, and settle in for the long haul. It has its good and bad…

Guess I'll aim for 50 miles again this month and hope the holiday stuff doesn't get in the way too much! 12/2 4 miles on the hotel treadmill in Lexington
