beads- this challenge last year changed my running, thanks!

I bloody well broke my ankle during last years challenge so not this year for me...still building and getting ready for Disney. Everyday would not be a good idea this year.
Sorry...:(

I might be interested in January. I need to heal up in December.

Today is my 20th, so that would be more like 50 runs in 50 days... I'll set it as a soft goal and see how it goes. The big goal in December is on the bike.

I will not be doing the 31 in 31, my schedule can't support it...but it set a very solid base for me last year.

I am doing more mileage right now though since I'm building my running base...hoping to get to 50 mpw before the end of the year.

GL to participants, just listen to your body

I'll take you up on that. Happy Holidays everyone!

strep throat on day 1 and 2...this isn't going so well!!!!

Ditto...except it ruined my achillies. I'll be sitting on the sidelines.

Ugh, felt a 'twing' in my right ankle yesterday pushing only the L train.

Lasted about 1.5 miles before I realized this wasn't an 'Ok to Run' kind of pain.

Blech with a side of blech.

Day 1 - 3.9 miles way too fast at lunch
Day 2 - 6@6 group
Day 3 - 1 mile time trial + warmup and cooldown during lunch with coworker

Just saw that I'm 170 miles from 2,000 miles this year. That's 6 miles a day for 28 days, or 42 per week for 4 weeks. As soon as I reach it, I'm taking the rest of the year off.

12/01 - strep, 102 degree fever.
12/02 - 12 miles, 1,500 gained
12/03 - 6 miles flat
12/04 - 16 miles, 4,250 gained
12/05 - 10 miles, 2,000 gained

i am still pissed i missed the first day, may have to get in an emergency 5 mile run tonight to make up for it....

I didn't run yesterday, but the sun still came up today. So be it.

i'm running 6 days every week right now building base and durability

take it easy everyone, make sure you're alternating hard and easy (or, for this time of year, easy and easier)

12/01 - strep, 102 degree fever.

finally starting to get back in the groove
