WELCOME TO THE DAILIES THREAD!
Anyone and everyone can post your runs, cross-training, abdominal work, rest days, race plans, training questions, etc.. The only stupid question is the one you did not post. There’s a great mix of beginners and veterans, runners and walkers, and maniacs and returners, from injury to running. We're all a little crazy here, too! While this thread is a terrific source of motivation for runners and serves as outstanding accountability, you’ll quickly find this remarkable group to be highly supportive of all life experiences. So, come on in, put your feet up, and stay a while (not literally)! And whoever is up first is welcome to start the thread and we definitely keep some weird hours here.
Good morning, everyone. I've been MIA with incredible coughing and post-nasal drip. Good time, I say.
I have the B.A.A. HM this morning. I will be thrilled to finish with both lungs intact.
Basya, good luck.
Church for me this morning, washing clothes, and I really need to wash and clean the vehicles. then maybe a short recovery run of 2-3 miles. I run a 15k yesterday; there's a RR floating around here somewhere if you care to read.

Good luck with your HM, Basya! Good luck to all our other races as well. Big day today!
'Morning! Lots of misc. STUFF to do today. I'm hoping to go for a short run later.
<3
What up doe!
SRD for me. lol
Where my coffee at....
Morning! 10K today, but not sure how much I'm going to race it. We'll see what the legs feel like doing out there. If nothing else, I get a good specific endurance workout at HMP. Or maybe I feel like running faster once it starts. I do think it's downhill for the whole second half, but you know what that means about the first half, right?
Basya- Good luck! Hopefully the sinuses clear up with the race effort.
Mitch- Glad you are feeling well after your race.
Phil- Likewise, glad you're recovering well. Is it still doggie sleepover playdate time?
LRB- Thanks for posting that link. What better way to waste time before a race than by watching a race?

8 Miles for me before the sun was even beginning to show, didn't get to run the route I wanted, didn't feel like suffering the hills or running the roads that have no lights on them and lots of trees........ we're getting into rut season ya know and the last thing I want is to get ran over by a buck.

Decided to DNF at Mile 11. You know me, I never DNF but my psoas and knee have been in pain since I started so I'll leave to fight another day (two weeks, actually)z
Damaris
So today was a supported training run, kewl!
Sorry to hear that D, hopefully you'll feel better for your next race.
I'm sorry about the DNF, Damaris, although it sounds like it was the right decision. I didn't know you were struggling with injuries. Heal up quick and my fingers are crossed you will be ready to go in a couple of weeks.
Life is good.
That is the thing. I am not injured. But after my massage on Wednesday, my psoas started hurting and the ITB swell up. Hubby thinks it was because of the massage. I just stopped so as not to injured myself. I am OK with it.
Got to meet RV downing and workinprogress!
D - sorry to see this but sounds like you were thinking ahead. hope it comes together in a couple weeks.
basya - finish strong with both lungs
hog - nice job yesterday
baboon - congrats on yesterday again
