April goals!

[ell]

Runners, we are starting April with a blank slate.

Give me your running goals and active hours here and I'll set us up a spreadsheet and figure out where we are going to be running this time!

(posting this from visiting my dad in the hospital - not to worry too much, he's having some blood pressure and heart issues that are non life threatening, but definitely a warning to all of us to keep running, stay healthy, and not turn into fat old men who smoke)

*HUGS* I'm so sorry that your father is having health issues! At least you happen to be on the correct side of the Atlantic to visit him while he recuperates? Sending California Healing Vibes™ to him and lots of love to your whole family (ESPECIALLY YOU!)

My goal: Ok, so I totally failed entirely at running in March. *insert excuses and annoyances here* I'm going to couch-to-5K myself back up to being able to run six miles at a stretch by the end of this month, in whatever way I can. I expect this will look like the following:

week 1: run 10 miles, active 4 hours
week 2: run 15 miles (25 total), active 6 hours
week 3: run 20 miles (45 total) active 4 hours (only so much free time in life!)
week 4: run 25 miles (70 total), active 4 hours

We shall see if this is too ambitious. I think I can I think I can I think I can... :-)

I'm in for 77 miles--need to keep the half marathon training going!

[meri_oddities]

I'm good for 100 miles and 8 activity hours. Maybe some biking, too.

[raininshadows]

Looking at 20 miles planned, and we'll say 4 active hours. I'm sorry about your dad, and I hope he gets better soon!

[semielliptical]

My goals: 125 miles, and 6 active hours

[frayadjacent]

65 km
10 active hours

Seeing as I'm sick at the moment and moving house this month I'm scaling down to 60 miles and 17 active hours.

[ridicully]

I will aim for 100km and 36 active hours this month

[nanila]

Active hours: 20
Running: I'm going to keep this very simple, as it's still challenging to go out when there isn't much light in the evening and daily child care mostly falls to me. I'd like to go out twice this month, and I'll aim to run 5 km each time.

65 km, 3 active hours.

(Good luck to your dad!)

Good luck to your father.

I'm hoping to run again. :-( Okay, here is a goal: 100 miles and 4 hours.
