that is great price eric! I love the 10 k distance! you might surprise yourself and come in even faster:)

Thanks for all the tips guys! I have ordered the book racing weight and am anxious to read it!

Wow second full?!! that is awesome!

I miss Skinny Runners blog so much!!!! Wish she would write it again. her fb and twitter just aren't the same:(

Congrats on your half and also your weight loss! I love that you did it slowly over time. What's up next for you? A full?

Wow! You are my new inspiration! You are super fast and congrats on qualifying for Boston!

I ran my first 10 K race yesterday 1:06 was my time! I was super happy since this was my first 10 K and my last "long run" in training was the 10 K distance I did it in 1:12. I didn't run with my garmin so I was totally shocked to see my time was 1:06! I went by feel and felt strong the whole race and really pushed it the…

Great idea to do another 10 k but improve time to under 1 hour! you are right the training for a half is a big time commitment and being a full time RN, wife and mom to 2 little girls 2 and 4 so my time is limited but I'm sure I could do it if I really set my mind to it! Glad to see others bit by the running bug on here.…

I am in the same boat as you! I am gearing up for my first 10 K in 2 weeks time and I hope to finish around 1:10 too. I already have my sights sets on a fall half marathon. I bought the book by runners world about marathon and half marathon training and it is really helping me to plan out my training. I highly recommend.…
