he dosent look interested in being in the 30mile walk/run club. 

LoL He finds do nothing and sunbathing are more enjoyable, now clearly showing his remorse and sorrow 😅 

Love tortoises!  

That is me. I am the turtle! 🐢🤣 

Morticia, Tortoises teach me about being flexible to adapt without sacrificing their norms. They spend most of their time on land yet adapting to water when their needs arise.  

Zenus, Lol 😅 Interesting, Turtles can hold their breath for as long as 7 hours in the water! You must be extra ordinary 👍 

you're making such great progress 😀👏 my farthest so far has only been 7 miles. my watch seems to have me doing a bunch of small runs, it makes me nervous 😅😆 

Ashley ~ Haha Thanks so much ! You seem to be far advanced than me ! No worries 😃 I'm struggling to continuously run for the entire distance even at a slower pace. I think I need to break the training goals into smaller sections such as a 5-mile run followed by a 5-mile walk and then finish it with a 3.1-mile run again. I will try training this way this month.. What do ya think?  

hang in there mattridegolfrun  

Thanks BB, I hope you like that tortoise but I would not take him as a pet yet LoL  

Wow nice work! 

Thanks Cheryll~ You’re welcome to join our FS challenge. Using a laptop, look for 30-miles/week challenge GOLD. It starts next Monday 🚴‍♂️🏃🏽‍♀️ You can walk, cycle, run, swim, anything that makes us move counts. 👍 

That’s great! Cute turtle 🐢 

Your welcome and yes he's a nice size. 

Thanks Storms~Shy & cute yes but I don’t dare to touch it ! 😁 

Makes me smile. When my grandson was in first and second grade (he’s 26 now) he always had me stop if there was a turtle in the road and he would get it to the side. Country roads and safe 

Mimi, Tender heart 👏🏼 

Cheese, No worries, his wife got him plenty of life insurance 😅 

Have you looked up training plans for half marathons? I only worry you might overdue it, just listen to your body! 

Hi Ashley Asarver, Thanks for your spirit of caring for your fellow runner ! 😁 Yes, You're correct on overdoing this. I feel I've completed a lot of distances but I don't have the speed to compete. When I tried to continuously run for some stretches over 5 miles, I ended up having excruciating backpain (punishment from my golfing days). At this point, I am not ready.... yet
