5 miles this morning, marking 11 days, while my other half slept in. And then he says to me at about 6pm, "Aren't you going to run? It's almost dinner time."

8 miles today. Half mile warmup, then ran in the 12 K's of Christmas (part of the Reindeer Fun Run in Aberdeen, NC). I've only been running a little over a year, and this was my first race at this distance...actually my first race of any distance over 5k. Finished in 1:09. Yes, I'm a turtle!
But a streaking turtle - day 10 done!
Got 're done early with 8 misty miles.
Wind is not my friend.
X, that happened to me last year. All i could do was laugh.
Hit 5 and 3 the last two days. Hoping for 10 tonight.
"Current" PRs
5K - 18:00 (4/19) | HM - 1:19:28 (4/22)
Next Race: A 5K of some sort (Goal: Sub 17:30)
Easy 4.6 miles today to extend the streak to 11 days.
Felt bad this morning and only went running because of this streak. Felt much better by the time I was done.

7 more. 47 so far. Looks like more good running weather this week.
Beautiful day for my long run - 41 and sunny - so I ran 16.
8k at 10 pm on the damned TM again. Man, I'm getting really sick of the constant rain. We're going to rot soon.
I also did 15 minutes of water running today for the first time in my life. I took the kids to the swimming pool and instead of just hanging around the kiddie pool I run some laps in it. We we alone in the whole complex, otherwise I would not have done it because I think it lookes a little silly. But it was a good workout! On one end of the pool the water was to my shoulders and it was pretty easy, but on the other end it reached my waist and it was really hard to run in it, my quads were screaming! Afterwards the kids told their father: We were swimming and mommy was runnig and doing triceps pushups on the edge of the pool .

Half Fanatic #846
Left the house this am at 56 degrees and calm, got to the trail and it was 52 and windy, but I always warm up enough after a mile or so. Got 10 in and looking to do an easy short run tomorrow. Have had to cut back on my trail running some - the knees have been complaining too much (it's a rough trail and to make matters worse, fallen leaves have hidden a lot of the roots). And, towards the end of the run when I was silently congratulating myself for not tripping and falling - yep, at the exact time I was thinking that thought, I immediately hit the ground hard. Never saw it coming - that's how it always happens. My HM coming up in Jan. on this same trail at faster speeds should be very interesting!
"I don't always roll a joint, but when I do, it's usually my ankle" - unk. "Frankly autocorrect, I'm getting a bit tired of your shirt". I ran half my last race on my left foot!
I'm still in the game...my plantar fascia is killing me (and has been for weeks) but I'm still in!
