Good luck to all of you running Boston! I can't wait to hear races reports. :)

@shanaber - I am doing the Big Sur Marathon on the 26th. My 1st marathon in over 12 years! @Beccajayn - awesome work!

@Stoshew71 - I completely agree with you and skippygirlsmom and others. I love the running community! I have always found it to be encouraging no matter what your goals and fitness levels are. We all have our personal goals that are not dependent on or lessened by anothers goals. @_nikkiwolf_ - Whoo-hoo! Go have fun and…

I used to feel really guilty about leaving my DH and kids to go out for a run (my "me time"). I have learned to get over that though. I figure that running makes me happier and healthier both mentally and physically which in turn makes me a better wife and mother. I do however do most of running in the morning. Dh gets…

I love that running is such a family affair for you all as it is with many on this thread. It was definately trickier to plan runs when the kids were younger. I remember that well. Your wife does sound amazing! A marathong pregnant? I am truly impressed! :) My husband doesn't run however he is one of my biggest supporters…

I do most of my runs out the door as well. If not I bring a towel to sit on and dry off with.

@teacton11 - how old your kids that you can get a 10 miler in with them in the double stroller? I rarely run with the double anymore (mine are 2 & 5) and even when younger I always maxed out at about 6 with the double BOB. @skippygirlsmom - your boyfriend is very sweet! And I love that you run with your daughter so much.…

I love this! My oldest girl (5 years old) likes to run with me sometimes. We'll go for .5-1 mile with walking breaks. She only has one speed though - sprinting! I keep telling her that she can go further if she slows down a bit. She claims that isn't as much fun.

I almost always have my hair in a bun/twist. I hate feeling my hair swish on my back for some reason, even in a pony tail. lol @karllundy - my mom is awesome! We don't get to run together much as I tend to run in the mornings before work and she is retired and has no desire to wake up that early. ;) @ddmom0811 - yes, the…

4/1.... 8 miles 8/150 goal A very, very, very windy run with my mom this evening! The sand from the dunes were hitting us hard. Like little painful pellets. Ouch!

I don't race much however when I do I like to set up A, B, C goals based on how I feel my training is going. My marathon in 4 weeks is a bit different as it is my 1st in over 12 years and I have absolutely no desire to "race" it or push myself in terms of pace. It is absolutely a "go out and enjoy it the best you can" type…

I am in for 150 miles. Less than last month but I have my Marathon April 26th and thus will be tapering a bit and resting after!

Just got back from vacation. I met my goal for the month! There is no way I can catch up on all the posts though. I will catch up on the April thread!

I was just talking to my Tuesday morning buddies this morning about ultra trail runs as one of them is training for a 100k in May. The overwhelming concensus was that trail races are way more fun than road races! The food, people and overall atmosphere are always fantastic on the hand full of trail races I have done. I…

@SLHysell - Congrats on your first HM! Definately sport that sticker proudly. That is a great time for your first. @Elise4270 - I always get hungry when I first up my mileage. It should level out. For now just pay attention to the quality of food you are eating. I am have trying my best to eat more protein for breakfast.…

Looks delicious! What all is in it?

I agree - I would be having to pee every 5 minutes! Not to mention trying to carry all of it with you. No thanks!

I should add too that I am learning a ton from you all! Everyone always has such great insight on all subjects. It is great to get perspective from so many different and knowledgeable runners.
