August Exercise Challenge...Everyone Welcome!

[Figment1990]

85 minutes running tonight. Gosh I'm tired! That's my longest run since last years wine and dine half in November. But it's the first time since then that I actually felt like maybe I can do 13 miles again. So it's a good tired!

640/800

Thanks everyone for asking about my DS's first day of kindergarten. I think it went well! He's happy he's sitting by his best friend. (I'm less than thrilled bc I don't want him to get distracted or in trouble) but all I really want is for him to like going to school. So far so good. Tomorrow is the first full day and his first lunch in the cafeteria and recess. Another big step!

Thanks!

Also, if nobody can do next month I am willing and able to host.

I had a bad week exercise wise. I ended up pulling my Achilles tendon last Monday so exercise has been really inconsistent since then but I'm hopefully back on track today.

I'm not sure when the last time I posted but as of this mornings run I'm up to 986/1600. Don't think I'm going to hit my goal this time around though. That week really set me back. Oh well, back on the wagon!

28 min run this morning
986/1600

I'll go with whatever you say. I'm working out at 5 am now so I'm sure I make mistakes. Thanks

Those early morning workouts are a killer. This morning I had to break out my safety lights because it was still dark!

8/22 - 45 min bike ride (first time on a bike in 10 years )

Good for you! I think it's been about that long since I rode a bike, too!

I do believe you are it! Thank you so much for volunteering. I think you've done it before, right? If not, PM me and I'll see about getting you what you need. It's easy, peasy.

Sorry your knees are bothering you again.

I just returned from WDW - awesome trip and I ran every morning but one while there. My runs were shorter, as I was walking all day long. I kept track, but will just offer the total for the time.

WDW vacation exercise - 920 minutes

August tally - 2169/3000

Looks like I will come up short this month, but I lost too many days to travel. My official training for the Goofy begins tomorrow morning.

Emotional week for me - while Fig was sending her baby to K, I was delivering my two babies to college. One going 5 hours north, the other 2.5 hrs west. You know they're ready to go, but your heart squeezes and cries for them to stay....ugh.

A couple of runs and walks with the pooch bring me to 969/1100

Are you running backwards? I show in post #254 that you had 1010 minutes. I am about to update and will make your minutes 1048 when I do. Is that right?
