Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
I want to set another goal for November, but don't know what it should be. October's was 60K, which I met, (+1 for good measure!). What's a safe increase?
Those 60K didn't come easy, so maybe I'm best to set that again and embrace anything extra as a bonus.

Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
November should be my first and only major build-up month for Goofy Challenge 2011, as it is only about 9 weeks away from today ... So, unless something happens, should be somewhere between 300-400 KM for the month ...

Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
Like 6-10 hours maybe..
Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
42.2km on the 7th Aside from that, very little as November is my rest month and I intend to do nothing at all until December.
Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
Somwhere around 200km probably, but I'm still in the "run whatever I feel like" stage for another month or so. The mileage should start to build in December, then the 18 week plan for a spring marathon starts in Jan. Time flies......
Keep on rolling, just a mile to go. Keep on rolling my old buddy, you're moving much too slow.
Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
As I did back in September, my goal is # of runs, not mileage. November's goal is 14 runs, which will likely bring me in around 100K.

Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
I'm back! I was counting down the days in October until I could put those runners back on.
I'll start the month off with a modest goal of 150 miles.

Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
More of the same - try to stay the course by running almost every lunch hour I can, and hope to maybe get a weekend run in (if I'm lucky). There's 21 lunch hours for me, so I'll aim for at least 20 runs. Should get me about 120 km.

Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
Can anyone join in the challenge? If so, I need the extra motivation as i am going on vacation to make sure I get some runs in while away. Put me down for 100km.

Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
about 250k, I know I'll be missing a few runs mid-month, and have a big race at the end of the month.

Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
Hmm.....ramping up back to pre-injury levels, so I think this would be reasonable (I'm fudging a little and including my LSD yesterday as part of this month since I didn't join the Oct challenge, otherwise tracking my weeks would get too confusing):
week 1: 35km
week 2: 40km
week 3: 45km
week 4: 45km
nov 28-30: 23km
I'll round that up to 190km for the monthly goal in mileage. More importantly for me is making sure I get in 5 runs a week, 1 yoga/core/pilates weekly, and 1 spin class weekly.

Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
I'm really bad at tracking my km's, so I'll use this as a kick in the butt to start!
Since I don't usually track, I'll say 60km and see where i go with that.

Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
I've fallen short of my goal for Sept. & Oct. (250k each month), so I'll try again for November. 250k

Re: November Mileage Challenge! :)
I'd like to hold my monthly average of about 150km /month.
That'll put my over 1000 miles for the year before month's end. That would be nice.

I run because it's my passion, and not just a sport. Every time I walk out the door, I know why I'm going where I'm going and I'm already focused on that special place where I find my peace and solitude. Running, to me, is more than just a physical exercise...it's a consistent reward for victory!

I've noticed that our training (and race goals) seems to have a lot in common. You sure you're not my long-lost twin?
