What did you do?

[Swissmiss]

After a month (starting tomorrow) of doing nothing due to being sick I finally went for my first walk today. Slowly easing back into it.

Hoping I can catch up on my virtual DL races and then Princess.

I too was back at it yesterday after falling 10 days earlier. My training plan called for a 35 min easy run and I ran 5 easy mins sandwiched between easy walks. Started slower than my usual paces and with each 5 mins I sped up a bit to end on my normal pace. It was ok while running but this morning my knees are a bit tender, so I think the bruises are still there, but each day is better.

Hope each day you feel better and better.

Did my 6 mile long run for my half marathon in May. Totally unmotivated to do it this morning but I was with my running buddies so we just gabbed our way through it.

 

[Greenlawler]

Ran 7 tonight at a slow and steady pace finished in just over an hour and ten minutes.

Training for the DL Halloween half.

 

[Greenlawler]

Nine Miles today folks. 11 minute miles.

 

[Greenlawler]

Ran 10 today....

Not a great day, but I took it slow and finished. My hips are lying.

 

[Greenlawler]

I did 60 minutes on the eliptical.....

I’m here, but still can’t run after fracturing 3 toes at the end of June. I very excitedly walked 10 mins on the treadmill last week but will unlikely be able to run in the various races I thought I’d be running the next 2ish months. Maybe - if I am lucky - I’ll be able to run-walk my 10k at the end of October.

12.12 miles on Sunday. My coach (wife), helped me through with encouragement and pop-up water stops.
I have a half marathon in 2 weeks.

The Loop of Death is fun, isn't it.

How are you enjoying your 1st cruise?

More importantly, when do you return? We've got a surprise waiting for you....

Not my 1st cruise but we had a great time. 3 days is too short and HOTHS isn't worth the extra $$ but I was on, on MY discount got back yesterday and already prepping for Milton

Next cruise - 10/29 on the Treasure and 12/1 on the Treasure

I ran the Rockfest Half Marathon in Hampton, NH on Sunday.

So I've been kinda consistent running this year, better getting out there than last year. Trying to run every other day, sometimes its 2 days in-between runs, but I'm making sure the days I wanted to run I get a long walk in instead.

Today, I was suppose to run. But at 7am it was 78 outside feeling like 84. So no running today (I don't have a treadmill available where I'm currently at).

I bumped this thread, cause it's almost halfway through the year and anyone needing motivation to start running this year you still have half the year left. Hope you all have (had) good runs.

I have finally been able to restart a running program (3 broken toes and a severe tendinitis on my knee sidelined me for 8-9 months) and have been able to run 3-4 times a week since April. That is until this week - participated in a 10k walking event on Sunday and was really happy that it didn’t seem to add any additional stress/pain to my knee and should have gone last night but was exhausted and it was too hot. A few hours later I came down with a fever, so I guess it is good that I listened to my body.

I just started on the bike (mid foot amputation in September) about a week ago…

After averaging 10-15 miles a week on foot for the prior almost 20 years…it’s gonna be a long road back up the hill (figuratively)

Sorry to hear this and I wish you all the best. I got really discouraged around Jan-Feb (6-7 months in) thinking maybe I was never going to get better. I do still have some issues; if I sit for too long it takes a minute or two for the knee to regain « mobility ». But at least now I am no longer thinking i may need to rent a wheelchair for my trip in August.
