Run Every Day For A Month

You've been thinking it for weeks, months, years!
"I've got to get back in shape"

In my experience the best way to do it is to R.E.D.

Join me for November.
Commit to running every day this month.
Pick your minimum mileage (4 miles/day?)

When you commit, respond to this thread.

We'll update every week.

December 1st we'll be feeling good, and motivation will be easier to come
by for the winter.

Because we have big goals in 2014, right?

Join me.

Fun race.  Went out a bit fast, but hung on for 3rd.

Not bad for a race kind of on a whim...

(I'll try to put up a real race report soon...)
