Monthly Review-May 2024This 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 about how May went for me:

Mileage:  To date I’ve run 30.89 and walked 5.31 miles.  I ran everyday for 34 days.  Then one Sunday I skipped my race because I felt very tired.  I meant to run later that day but it was too hot for me.  I still haven’t run since then.

Run the Year 2024:  I signed up to run and walk 2,024 miles this year.  So far I have completed 144.65 miles (per the RTE Tracker).  I laughed when I saw the mileage because I have a LONG WAY to go.  But I am determined to not give up.   I will achieve my goal.

Current Book:  I finished reading “Doctors and Friends” and am currently reading “The Bad Muslim Discount”.

Injuries:  None.  My knees don’t hurt anymore and the pain with plantar fasciitis comes and goes.  It isn’t as painful as before so I am happy about that.  

Races:  None.

Health:  I am doing OK.  I am still dealing struggling with hot flashes.  The number is still on the high side.  My shorts and pants still feel tight.  I love wearing jeans to work but haven’t been wearing them because they’re too tight and I don’t want to buy new ones.  I am wearing black pants with an elastic waist to be more comfortable.

School:  The last day of school is Friday.  It was supposed to be Thursday but we used one snow day in January so we have to make it up.

What I am looking forward to next month:  I start Summer School on the 10th and finish on the 28th.  Then the real Summer Break starts.  Unfortunately this year we start the school year a bit earlier.  Many teachers are not happy about it for various reasons.  It doesn’t bother me because I don’t have kids and don’t have to plan back to school stuff for them.

The topic for next week:  How will you celebrate Global Running Day tomorrow?  Feel free to write about this or any running-related topic.  We hope you’ll link up with us!

  1. I’m sure you’re counting down the days until school is out! My mother-in-law had a little plaque that read, “Three reasons teachers teach: June, July, and August.”

  2. I am so excited for you to be done for the summer!

    I’m sorry about the hot flashes. We have temps up near the 100s right now and every night I’m waking up to play the game “Is It Hot Flashes Or Is My A/C Broken?” So far, the answer is hot flashes. Which is preferable to the other, but still terrible.

    Yay for no injuries.
