Thank you Cathe for challenging me to run 5 miles in the August rotation. When I first saw that 5 mile run in the rotation, I thought "well, maybe I could do 3." But today I did the whole 5! Thanks again for pushing me to do more that I thought I could.

Thanks everyone!!!

Although my leg muscles and old creaky bones are not as happy about it as I am..hehe! They are just going to have to get with the program!

Congratulations!

I've been running for about five years now so when you go a new distance like that, it helps if you walk at least ten minutes afterwards to help your muscles cool down. If you can eat a small amount of carbs and protein within 30 minutes of your run, this helps cut down on soreness the next day.

Again congratulations and hope more miles are in your horizon!
