October Totals:
Total Miles - 155.80 miles
Total Time - 21:44:38
Average Pace - 8.16/mi
Avg HR - 140
Hmmmm, last month, I made a comment about possibly not being ready for my races this month. I was really wrong. Both races I exceeded my expectations tremendously.
this month was a little shorter on mileage, but Pace and HR both dropped as well. HR mainly to the heat/humidity finally breaking!
I have a couple more races lined up for this year, and hope to continue to beat my expectations.

Too bad I am not around to help you go too fast before an A race. BTW what is the A race, rocket city? dec?
Might be great running weather for you on Saturday but i am glad to not be running. Of course i am hiking on Friday, sat and sun and expecting the weather to be super frigid, but thankfully dry unlike yesterday.

I keep watching for the Adrenaline 19s to go on sale! I can get the 20s already and I think they are very similar (unlike the 18's), but I have not seen an end of model sale price yet!
October
34 miles
12:38 average
This total is sadly low, I had planned on 50. I ran very little while on a business trip as hotels did not have treadmills and I did not pack appropriately for running in rain, and when I did it was very slippery. I thought I was going to get the last 6 in this week, but again with the rain and late nights making costumes for Halloween and the kids races on Saturday. On the up side, my resting heart rate is a bit lower than previously, even with a serious sleep deficit. At least I know I will get 13 miles in on Sunday, so November has the chance to be a bit more successful.

October mileage:
Miles: 78.95
Time: 20:32:53
Didn't see the .95 until after I showered this morning. I may have to turn on my garmin tonight and run a bit during trick or treating to get that extra .05!

It’s kind of amazing what they pulled off.

October miles = 134.
8 weeks into the Dopey training plan and no runs missed so far. The highlight for me in October was the Hartford Half Marathon which I pretty much ran as a training run but with the great race conditions and being in better shape than I realized, set a new PR by 4 minutes. Note that almost all my training runs on the Dopey plan have been in the 8:45/mile - 9:30/mile range yet somehow I ran the half marathon at a 7:27/mile pace. What was that about running slow to run fast?? Yeah. It is real!!
September = 126
August = 150
July = 154
June = 138
May = 150
April = 115
March = 140
February = 122
January = 123
1,352 total miles so far in 2019.

October miles: 53.6 - I had to take a breather after Chicago before I dive into Goofy training soon.
We have total crap weather happening for Halloween here today! It's currently raining now and later it's supposed to turn to a windy, wet snow. Yuck! Fortunately my kids are old enough to take a spin around the neighborhood by themselves if they feel like going out in that mess.

October:
Running: 20 miles
Walking: 28 miles
I haven't ran since Oct 12th- I'm not mentally willing to say it was my last pregnant run, but it might have been... It's been a tough month with pain on the back of my heel, but I'm thankfully finally seeing some improvement. I'm really hopeful that I will log a few running miles (or just minutes!) in November- fingers crossed!
Halloween: I have chicken taco chili in the crock pot and am ready to welcome trick-or-treaters with a bowl full of candy!
It's going to be chilly (but thankfully dry!), so I don't think we'll get a ton, but it's always fun when friends bring their kiddos over.

LOL. You're good at that, we'll see how I do on my own. I'm thinking not as good as when I let you set the pace.
The A race is Rocket City Half, Dec. 14th.
Not putting it in the 'official' format, but I'm thinking sub 50:00 10K. Then I'll need to PM @DopeyBadger to see how to get back on track.

October:
Distance - 191.37mi
Time - 25h27m52s
Pace - 7:59/mi
My longest month ever. Would have been over 200 miles, but I missed a couple runs while on vacation. Next month is peak marathon training for me, so this record will stand for a month.
Our halloween plans are in flux, we are predicted to get strong/severe thunderstorms right during prime trick-or-treating timeframe tonight.

running: 127.8 mi
-ave pace 11:20
-total time 24.15 h
This is my second-highest amount of miles per month ever, and it corresponds to almost reaching my peak in marathon training. Fortunately the runs have been going very well!
tennis: 24 h
This is also a big jump in the amount of tennis - prime time for the fall seasons. Sadly, the losses have for exceeded the wins in tennis matches. A lot of very good competition this time of year, because in about a month or so the new ratings will come out and all the really good players will be moved up to the next level. For now, I am stuck playing them!

They didn't have my size but it got me googling and Dick's has them for 90 bucks. Thanks!
It seems appropriate to order Ghosts on Halloween! BOO!

A good month: most monthly miles YTD, ran the Atlanta 10 Miler and got to meet some DISers, finally we are done with the heat, and a new pair of Ghosts on the way. Life is good.
