Pumpkin Team - Just Wanna Run - November (Page 5)

Bummer.  Sorry to hear that Don.  Biking and swimming are out too?

I'm still here...5.2 miles in yesterday.

I'm at 55%...we're 65% into the month.

I NEED to get my long run in this weekend.

Pumpkins, our very nice challenge leader - movingsouth/Cynthia - is going to allow me to pro-rate my goal. Because my injury has forced me to stop running with a third of the month left, my goal will be prorated to the 2/3s I was able to run. This reduces my goal to 148.5 miles and since I have run more than that I will be at 100% of goal and won't negatively affect the team. Good luck to the rest of you as it appears you all are on track to make your goals. Go Pumpkins!

I'm going to try putting my bike on the trainer and see how that goes. The doctor doesn't want me to do any exercising that could cause my toe to flex.

I had a week dominated by fatigue but I am still on track. Did my group run training this morning.

Bad luck Don. I hope you recover quickly.

Greetings Pie-rs!

Update your logs and spreadsheet and look to your final week of running -- will you meet your goals?  I'll check team standings tomorrow eve and post to all where teams are placed.

Who's running on Turkey day?  It's my birthday so run a good race for me!  I'll be doing a 5K.  It was meant to be my first 10K but after my late Oct/early Nov injury, I'm not going to push it and re-injure myself.  The first 10K will have to be later.

Keep on runnin'

I've called y'all pies, but really you're just the fillings... soon it'll be time to put the topping on, toss in the oven and serve up with whipped orice cream.  Looks like the Pumpkins will have it - who else?

Apples  72.74%

Pecans 74.94%

Pumpkins 82.90%

Pumpkins, it looks like you're all continuing to do well and putting up some solid numbers. Last week, keep it up and the victory is assured.

It's been a week since my last run. All the pain and swelling in my toe is gone, but I still can't fully bend it yet. Hopefully I'll be able to try running by this time next week.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!

Yes, he said 3 weeks or possibly sooner if the above conditions are met. 2 out of 3 so far. I'm waiting until I can fully bend the toe. Hopefully that will be by next week.

I did get in a decent trainer session today.
