Hi Everyone,
I'm so glad to be here! I really need the motivation of a Disney reace to keep moving. I just finished my first Minnie marathon with my sister and hope to move onto a half in January 09 or a full in January '10 or maybe a 1/2 triathalon... I injured my IT band before the Minnie (but I finished the race!) and am just coming back from resting it now... I think it's so funny that I am in herc's heros - I just added his song to a slide show for our minnie marathon trip:

Girls Minnie Marathon trip slide show

I ran 4km in 30 minutes (First run since the Minnie) on Friday and am going out again tonight when DH gets home to catch the chitlets.

cdn_gal_eeyore: What is boot camp? Don't forget to wave as you fly by on your way to Quebec!

Hello team,

Leana--Thanks for the bike info! Now I know that a road bike would probably fit my needs best.

Linda--I hope your leg is feeling better.

Mary--Congrats on the no knee pain & good luck with the group training!

Welcome Alysa!

Hello to anyone I missed.

Here is my update:
7-18 4 miles (52:13).
7/21 2 miles (25:19). Also biked 1 mile (3:56min) on gym bike & did XT (30min).
A little knee discomfort but not like before. I'll be through with physical therapy in about a week or so & it's definitely helping.

I'm also counting down finishing my Master's classes. 3 weeks & 1 day! I sooo can't wait to be through so I can get some sleep & recover some sort of a social life.

Anyway... I hope everyone has a great week!

Linda - How are your shin doing? I battled shin splints for a couple of months earlier this year. I found that my calves were really tight. Active Release and massage helped a lot. Good luck!

Alysa - Fantastic slide show! You guys must have had a great trip. Take care of that IT band! A half post Minnie is a totally doable goal, so good luck!

Allyson - You are doing great!

Swimming and boot camp yesterday, biking to and from work today, and a 14miler tomorrow. That's what I've been up to!

Please excuse the interruption!

Hey guys, if you haven't noticed, Judy & myself are trying to entice as many WISHers as possible to voluntEAR as Sports Enthusiasts for Marathon Weekend.

It will be lots of fun, and what a great way to support others WISHers (and all the athletes) if you are not participating!

Nevermind, you receive a one-day park ticket, jacket and a snack for your troubles!

I know that we had a blast doing this last year and we hope to have much more particpation this year.

I am happy to report I'm back to some form of exercise since my surgery. I walked a whopping FIVE MILES this past week!
I walked a mile Monday thru Friday and did OK. Next week I think I'll be crazy and move up to two miles a day.

Doc keeps saying every week I see him in a couple weeks he'll probably clear me to start some running, so we'll see! Maybe soon I can start running a minute or two throughout my walks.

Walks are going OK, right thigh is still numb from surgery and burns when I walk. Old quad injury hasn't acted up yet.

Still on for the January Half. I would like to be running, but it is looking like I'll have to do a walk / run program. I have had complications with my surgery and it is looking like I'll need revisions done right after the Half.

Still, I'm happy to finally add anything to the Herc totals, although pretty small.

Sooo,
5 miles / 1:35 minutes

I ran 75.1 miles this week in 671 minutes. I hope everyone is doing well.

 

[MomofCKJ]

I just got in. Did my longest training run ever, 3 miles. I feel good about pushing it a bit further. I need to start increasing my miles. Took me 40 minutes. Not the greatest but I did have to stop and walk a bit extra in the middle, my ankles were hurting. I'm glad I got out there though, I wasn't feeling terribly motivated this morning.

Hi there - newbie here. As noted above, I'm in Chi-town training for my very first marathon. I'm hitting a bit of a mid-summer slump and need some extra motivation to keep me going the next few months.


Now that I'm here, what info I need to provide and how often?
