October may be my favorite running month. Especially this year. We had a pretty mild month with no early snowfall and not too much rain that it interfered with my runs. And despite only getting in one race, it seemed like near perfect racing conditions each weekend. That’s why I’m proud of my total mileage for the month!
This October was good to me and I ended the month with 121.13 miles and ran 23 days. I’m pretty proud of that number, especially without any longer runs (my longest run of the month was 7.1 miles).
This week, I ended the up with 29.25 miles.

The highlights from the week?
Friday was my first treadmill run of the year! I did it while the kiddos were sleeping and I can just say that I definitely need to get back into treadmill shape.
Saturday’s run was a stroller run with LM! I typically run with FW and can’t remember the last time I ran with LM. She was good for the whole run, too, which was broken up into a 2.5 mile run, a break (playing and story time at the library) and then 1 mile run.

Questions for you:
- Did it finally get cold near you? We were in the thirties this week on Friday and Saturday!
- How did you do for monthly mileage in October?
