Open for any runners, or any runners looking to get their 'mojo' back.

I have a 10k on Sunday which I am feeling less than prepared for, and the stomach bug is just adding to that. I have a feeling I will be the slowest runner!

Welcome actiongirl1978!

Hope your back is feeling better soon Standingonlego!

Hope you have a fab run Mitchy1nge! How about pancakes?

Enjoy feetheart!

I think last month was our biggest TheBigBumTheory and that was 800 and something.

I have 4 to add from an early morning watching the sun come up run so we're up to 962.3!

Mitchy1nge · 31/10/2014 11:18

had a great 8.5 miles, thank you :) feel human again

970.8 we are pretty close

(pancakes are a great idea but I think I'm too lazy to make them just for me Grin)

ThursdayOfTheLivingDead · 31/10/2014 12:10

4.2 agonising miles that I really shouldn't have done, and only did because I will weep if we don't make it to 1000 Grin

might be taking this a bit too seriously

975

TheBigBumTheory · 31/10/2014 13:00

So this is already a record breaking month?Shock

Im going nowhere today as my hip is niggling because I've been overdoing it recently.

I went out and ran 2.5 miles. Badly and slowly Hmm. But I did run them Smile

So 977.5

karatekimmi · 31/10/2014 15:41

Miranda every little helps!!

please can other people go and run as I have just been to an all you can eat buffet and wasn't planning on moving , however my club run is at 7pm so I might have to put my runners on and plod around 26 miles!! Grin yes I do run around the carpark to make my mileage a round number!!

LaughingM · 31/10/2014 15:42

And another 2 from me! 979.5

This morning cemented that I am not good without breakfast... Definitely more of an evening runner, but I better get my head around mornings if I want to have any sunlight runs before next spring!

standingonlego · 31/10/2014 15:56

Ok...I have trawled Runkeeper and have already counted all my outside runs :( However I did do a treadmill pace session that I have not counted so 2 miles more from me (thinking we need every mile we can!) taking us to981.5

Back still but dodgy and Halloween half term stick here...

actiongirl1978 · 31/10/2014 17:42

Nope, sorry everyone couldn't manage it, had a long day out with the children, came home made brains on toast (aka cheese and passata on toast) and set up a Halloween tea and then fell into a glass of Pinot Grigio Blush but I am hoping that now I am firmly on board next month I will be able to contribute a bit more!

Mitchy1nge · 31/10/2014 17:52

I've got 10+ planned for the morning but that's a bit late isn't it Hmm

standingonlego · 31/10/2014 20:28

It gives us a fabulous target for November :)

cinnamongreyhound · 31/10/2014 20:33

One less day in November Wink but actually 5 weekends so could be doable :)

feetheart · 31/10/2014 22:51

Oooo so close.
Is Blathers lurking? Surely she must have a few miles to add as I haven't seen her post for a while :)

Mitchy - we need those 10 miles to kick November off :)

HalleLouja · 31/10/2014 23:29

Have about 6.5 miles to add to October. Can't do adding now. Too shattered...

HalleLouja · 31/10/2014 23:31

karatekimmi · 01/11/2014 06:01

I looked back over my runs this month but have counted them all!! great target for November and I have two parkrun then race 10k's this month!!

My DH got me a garmin for my birthday which isn't until December, but I think I'm allowed it now as it's been delivered and it saves him wrapping it!! Very excited about my new toy!! Although I'm sure knowing how slow I am running will be slightly depressing!!

stil hoping for some last minute miles

standingonlego · 01/11/2014 08:31

Adding up for tired halle took us to 988.0 for October - that is awesome!

standingonlego · 01/11/2014 10:36

Happy November...looks like I am the first here...so 5.2 miles to get is started

HalleLouja · 01/11/2014 11:12

3.1 tough miles from Parkrun. Serves me right for going on hols.

Makes it 8.3 miles.

Mitchy1nge · 01/11/2014 11:20

I've got miles from earlier in October to add I think, on phone so can't easily check when I joined in.

Anyway 10.35 from this morning, really pleased with self (and consistency of pace)

Mitchy1nge · 01/11/2014 11:21

18.65

MirandaWest · 01/11/2014 11:24

Have done park run (no DS this week as he and DD are down south visiting grandparents wit their dad). Am quite impressed with myself for managing park runs two weeks in a row Grin

So 3.1 from me and 11.4 total

Mitchy1nge · 01/11/2014 11:48

nah mate 21.75 I think

my longest run since Feb needs to be in there!

ThursdayOfTheLivingDead · 01/11/2014 11:53

Well done mitchy - are you cheered up now Wink

Adding my parkrun makes 24.8
