Ran 6.75 miles yesterday (Sunday) & ran 4 mi & walked 1 today (6:45 AM). Monday's run was a tempo run - trying to up the pace: the 3rd mile was at a 9:30 min/mi pace - which is fantistic for me! (typically it's been 11:00ish

I've decided to do a half. I'm going to run a 5k next month, then follow 5k to half 3 month plan from there.
Good luck man. I toyed with doing the half this year too, but don't have the time to commit at the moment. Might be a 2015 project for me.
You're doing good grins! Are you losing some weight? How much has your pace improved so far?
I took a couple weeks off to be on the safe side and avoid any injuries before THPMC.
I'm probably stupid for doing it, but I just feel like I need to set a goal like that right now. Should be interesting that's for sure.
16 miles so far this week (strictly running miles. I've also walked another 10). This morning I ran 5 miles (after golf!) at a 10:40 min/mi pace (lowered from previous best pace of 11:25 min/mi). Did 5k at a 10 min/mi pace & it felt easy, and my "survival shuffle" pace is now closer to 11:00 min/mi (vs 12+ 2 weeks ago).
Guess I'm gonna start running again. God knows I need to and the wife is training for a marathon.
Now I need a new dog to run with.

Get a bike. Ride while she runs.
Seriously considering. My knees need it. Need a low budget road bike.

I ran 4 miles yesterday, which is probably the longest I have fun in at least 5 years. Progress has come quickly so far, but this is always been my ceiling, I have always been able to run 3 miles or so pretty easily, but passed that I have run into joint problems. Hopefully I can continue to move forward.
seeing that you're from Brandon, I can sympathize with you on your run.....hot/humid as hell here, isn't it?
Haha yep, I get my butt up bright and early to avoid the heat.
after running 4 miles every day, I took a month off due to travel....first day back yesterday only 2 miles, today 2.5 miles......air feels very heavy. Got a few 5km races coming up in the Fall, so I got to get back up to about 4 miles....getting up before 7 a.m. and getting out there is much easier than running later in the day when it heats up and gets more humid......
I took a few days off after my calf tightened up on the last run, so I went nice & slow today & did 7 miles (6.2 miles = 10 km in 68:28, so basically 11 minute miles).
The only thing I'm wondering is I'm using Map My Run app, and it's telling me that the 1 mile mark is slightly less than 4 laps, so it has my mile pace at 10:45. I always assumed 4 laps on the inside lane at the local high school track was 1 mile. I wonder which is correct?
