30 runs in 30 days - who's with us? (Page 64)

I have been basically pain free the last 2 runs.  My mileage for this month will be about 25% less than last month, and I had to slow down a bit, and not run any hills, but I think I've gotten through it. I'll still be at about 140-150 miles for the month.  I stretched my calves about 6 times per day when it flared up....and got started on the stretching that often as soon as I felt the heel pain one morning. 

This is the opposite foot that I had the really bad issues with last summer that caused me to have to take a few months off (just prior to this streak).

10.2  miles. 

47 mile week, not as much as some ; ), but good for me, especially including swim/bike volume.  7:32 min/mi pace, some wind, but it was cool and comfortable.   Taper for HIM this week, yay!

navbtcret - 2013-04-28 4:36 PMDay 522, 24.6 miles. 100.5 miles this week, first time ever with 100 miles two weeks in a row. Not next week though, I have a race Saturday so I need to taper a bit for it. It is four races in one day, a half marathon, then a 5 mile race, followed by a 5k and finishes with a 1.5 mile race for a total of 22.7 miles. You have to maintain a 10:20 pace to make the start for each race, should be fun. I'll have some time to rest between races, not sure how that will go but hopefully not bad.

I do a relay every year with 7 others....you basically run 3-5 miles and then wait a few hours to go again. From my experience I recommend 1-3 beers during your breaks.....the amount just depends on how big of an experience you are looking for.

I will only have like 30-40 minutes between the half marathon and 5 miler and then probably 10-15 between that and the 5k and 5-10 before the 1.5 mile so not a lot of time for beer. I'll save that for after the race but thank for the tip. LOL

Sounds like a cool race. Good luck!

Run #224

Broke 60 mile for the week. Now I start to taper for my marathon.

Off day. 3 mi easy.

Welcome......and no, the challenge is 30 days.....and then that's when the sickness sets in.

Day 524, 6.1 easy mile. I managed 364.2 miles this month, not my highest monthly total ever but close.

Yes I have had the sickness for a while and it appears the is no cure for me.
