Nice. This was not even a goal for me because while I've always wanted to lose 5 lb or so, I've come to the realization I'm can't sufficiently commit myself to this. But it just so happens I'm down 4-5 pounds from where I've always been. Not a lot, but I feel good about it. I have not been doing anything intentional and IDK if it's just from the mileage; in the past I've seen no correlation of weight to mileage until I get >70, then I lose a few lbs. So when I ease up here, we'll see whether the weight comes back on.

I've wanted to lose 10-15 since giving birth to my 7 yo
I think its from not eating out much in March and April. Running and strength training is about the same, I'm cycling some but not walking around work daily so activity wise, I'm probably the same.
Are we there, yet?
Sort of glad I didn't post my goals at the beginning of the year. It would have looked like I set soft goals. Attained 3 of them in one race on March 7th, the last time I raced and the only ultra I've run this year.Sub-6:00 marathon (5:58:58 split in 12-hour race)Sub-7:15 50K (7:06:04 split in same race)
45 miles in 12 hours (47 miles in that race)
2024 Races:
03/09 - Livingston Oval Ultra 6-Hour, 22.88 miles
05/11 - D3 50K, 9:11:09 05/25 - What the Duck 12-Hour
06/17 - 6 Days in the Dome 12-Hour.

So far I'm 0 for 3. Not likely to change either.
