Are already ahead of pace at this moment. That's a good sign, I think, especially since for many of us mileage picks up in the spring, summer, and fall.

Keep on trucking!

Only just keeping ahead of the bunny right now by the skin of my teeth, but I'm determined not to loose my lead!

I have like a 14 mile lead at this point. However, I just ran my marathon, so that motivation (and guaranteed 26.2 miles) just went out the window.

Hmmmm....What to do?

2011 Goals:

**Run 2 Marathons:

1) January 16, 2011 PF Chang's Rock-N-Roll Arizona Marathon 4:04:59

2) October 9, 2011 Bank of America Chicago Marathon

**Run 1,250 miles (Just a stupid goal--given up 05/31/2011)

**Stay healthy and injury-free (never really healthy to start year)

Good to hear, littlefrog!

azredbirds, Good work, too. Maybe to help you keep going you should pick another goal race for the spring, summer, or fall?

Yeah I have my first half marathon in March and it's really motivating me to pick up the mileage. Booking yourself in for races really does work!

Thanks for the congrats folks!

I'm trying to figure out what races to do this spring (shorter races), and I'm thinking about Chicago this fall. I'll find the motivation somewhere.

I'm falling a little farther behind every day, and will probably continue that trend until after 4/15/10. After that, I wont be working 50 hours per week and hope to catch up by mid summer. Right now I'm spending long hours in the tax office.

I'm barely keeping up thanks to massive rain last week. I'm spending all of February moving across the country, so I'm probably going to get behind during that. Just gonna have to keep plugging away and hope I don't get too far behind so I can catch up easy in the spring and summer.

I'm trying to stay ahead of that bunny! The bunny is hot on my heels due to a chest cold my son brought home from preschool and shared with me. Once this cold is gone I'm pretty sure I can beat that bunny back into submission.

I just found the group and joined, but have been working on the goal since the first of the year. A bit behind, but plan to catchup once all the snow melts....I gotta catch up to the bunny! I really want to hear that bunny panting when I pass him...
