This week’s Tuesday Topic is a FREE topic.  Feel free to post any running-related blog post.  Remember to link up with Jenn and Zenaida!  Visit at least two of the other linked posts – the more the merrier!  Remember to come back for later linkers!

Let me tell you how October went for me:

Mileage:  In October I ran 27.84 and walked 9.92 miles.  I have plans to run a couple of half marathons next year and I began following one of Hal Higdon’s half marathon plans.

Run the Year 2024:  I signed up to run and walk 2,024 miles this year.  So far I have completed 467 miles (per the RTE Tracker).  I know I will not reach this goal.  I am curious to see how many I actually do.

Current Book:  I finally finished reading “What Could Be Saved”.  Now I am reading “These Silent Woods”.  So far I am liking it.  It is my xx book this year.

Injuries:  I haven’t haven’t had too much issues with plantar fasciitis.  It could be because I am seeing a chiropractor to help me with my back.  Last week I mentioned my tight hips and they had me do a couple of stretching exercises to help with the tightness.  I know I should be doing these anyway.

Races:  None.

Health:  I am still dealing struggling with hot flashes.  The number on the scale isn’t going up so I am happy about it.  Now I just need to lose the weight!

School:  It is the same song here.  I have OK days, bad days, and awful days.  Next week is parent/teacher conferences and I am not looking forward to it.  It is a LONG day for me.  I have to say the same thing to the parents of half of my students – “Your child cannot read or write”.

A parent went to administration to complain about me.  I am annoyed that she went straight to administration without talking about it first with me.  I have talked to this parent before so she could have come to me.

What I am looking forward to next month:  My birthday and Thanksgiving Break.  My sister will be in town for a cotillion and I am excited about it.

The topic for next week:  What are you grateful for this year.  Feel free to write about this or any running-related topic.  We hope you’ll link up with us!

  1. It’s great to hear that your plantar fasciitis is somewhat calm at the moment. Here’s hoping it stays that way. Yes, stretching is good, but how many of us really stretch as much as we should?

  2. Yes! I am curious too about how many miles you will log by the end of the year. Keep it up, even if you will not reach your target of 2024 miles, you are on the right track!
    So rude of that parent. It’s common courtesy to speak directly to the teacher. Does the school make efforts to curb such behaviour from the parents?

Thank you for your comment!
