We are just about over with 2015, half way through baby!!!!
So post your goals for this month
*Do It For Yourself, Do It Because They Said It Was Impossible, Do It Because They Said You Were Incapable*
PRs
5k - 24:15 (7:49 min/mile pace)
10k - 51:47 (8:16 min/mile pace)
15k -1:18:09 (8:24 min/mile pace)
13.1 - 1:53:12 (8:39 min/mile pace)
26:2 - 4:14:55 (9:44 min/mile)
I want to run 100 miles.
Since I'm still on the comeback trail from knee surgery, very conservative goals:
80-100 miles
Half-marathon in 2:20 or so - using walking breaks (Amending this to 2:30 if the forecast for a high of 90* and full sun that day holds)
Continue strengthening and see if I can jog an easy downhill without knee pain by the end of the month
20,000 miles behind me, the world still to see.
1. Solid month of training (good mileage without forgetting faster running)
2. Avoid injury
For my third objective, I'll go with something more realistic than last month
3. Run with happylily the wolves
delicate flower
A couple of PR's and 200+ miles would be nice, but really I just want to be a good person.

In a sport known for its ups and downs, things seem like they have been more down than up this year.
I am not going to worry over it though. If I can run great, if I can resume training even better. If not, there is always Cedar Point.
Super B****
15K PR.
Wouldn't mind a 10K PR too, but that isn't a priority right now.

Phil, being a good person probably comes pretty naturally for you.
Rick, I know what you mean on the more downs than ups, I am definitely not where I was a year ago mileage/running wise. Hoping it will get better.
Stay healthy

To not see a clown when I look in the mirror.
Couldn't even do me that solid, FFS.
A HM PR, a couple of AG awards in other races, and my first two triathlons. That'd be a decent year. 210 miles. I'd like to be in the 240-250 range...not going to happen in July.

1. Missed it - took a week off while traveling, only 60 miles
2. Missed that, too - 2:25. It wasn't as hot as originally predicted, but apparently couch to 13.1 in 7 weeks isn't a great training plan
3. Oops. Didn't do very well with my exercises, either, though I have been able to jog slopes that aren't too steep.
15K PR. Wouldn't mind a 10K PR too, but that isn't a priority right now.
Done. (And done, along with a 5K PR and a 4-mile PR. So yay?)
