March Goal 40 miles To date 14.8 Added a mile to my run today so 3.3 miles (mini long run) for me in 60 degrees and sunny skies. Spring is in the air here in Michigan.

March Goal 40 miles Miles to date 11.5 New shoes today ! Didnt have the Saucony Eschelons I ran in last year so I went with the Brooks Dyad 11s.

Brand new here and looking for accountability and friendship to get me back on track. I will try for 40 in March. I have a long history of running but due to "Life" my last few years have been almost nothing. I am hoping to change that this year. Thank you

Many great responces but I went back and looked at your food log. From Sunday through Saturday last week. You ended up with a 1612 calorie surplus.Thats enough to add a 1/2 pound to your weight. certainly not any loss. I also added all the cupcakes and cheesecake and it was 1746 calories. I think maybe the problem is food…
