Hello! How’s it going?!
This morning I did most of Jillian’s 6 Week Six Pack (skipped the burpees) and then ate a happy meal. That would be Cinnamon Raisin Ezekiel bread and eggs with a smile
Local to SoCal? My favorite Running Coach – Steve from Sole Runners just started a new training session for runners interested in training for the LA Marathon with a group (or another race around that time). He also does ChiRunning lessons and online marathon training! Check out his marathon training packages here.
Time for our weekly Pile on the Miles Check in!
Last Monday we shared our goals for the week – did you hit yours?

Elizabeth says
My goal is to run a few easy miles this week and then 26.2 on Saturday in Richmond, VA!
Tara Sullivan says
I hit all of my training runs this week but I did not manage to do any cross training. This week, I am planning to change up my workout schedule in hopes that I can hit every planned workout. Daylight savings is killing me at night so I’m going to try a.m. runs instead!
mom taxi julie says
My goal is to have a nice run, my last one sucked!! Weird how some days you just aren’t feeling it and others you can totally rock it!
Solana Klassen (@SolanaLeigh) says
Goal for this week is to recover from the trail marathon I ran on Sunday. That already brings my weekly mileage to 26.2, and I hope to do about 8-10 miles this week more, so anywhere over 35 miles I’m happy with, but recovery comes first!

Wendy says
My goal is 28 miles this weekend. I ran the Malibu Marathon on Sunday, wooowooot!
runeatrepeat says
Way to go! How’d you do?
Wendy says
Considering how hilly it was, I think I did pretty good (4:42:09). Keep in mind, my fastest is 4:33:53 at the OC marathon which is relatively flat ;).
runeatrepeat says
That is better than good! Own it 🙂
Wendy says
thanks, Monica!
Denise P. says
Gahhh setting a goal is so hard for me this week. I’m coming off of a Ragnar relay and kind of in a rebellious I don’t wanna run mood.
Let’s say 10 miles.

I’ve been struggling with motivation lately as I’m in between races and just not feeling it. So, my goal is to just get out there more than once this week!

My goal this week is 15 miles and 3 days at Crossfit. We’ll see! I’d love to read the book though!

I completely missed the whole Pile on the Miles post and never signed up – but I still have goals! I want to see how far I can get while still standing this weekend (11 miles is my ultimate goal) – and if I do, I am signing up for my first 1/2 on Thanksgiving day – which I would run with my daughter!

Nicole says
My goal for this week is 12 miles. This is fairly conservative for me but this week I’ll be focusing more on speed work then miles. Last night my run coach had us do 2 beep tests in a row! So while my miles for this week may be low my legs are still getting a massive workout!
Becca says
My goal for the week is 12 miles. I was sick last week so I need to step up my game to reach my goal. =)

My biggest running goal is to have a successful long run this weekend. I need to run 16 miles and I need to feel good about it in order to feel better about my training for Disney in January. This book would be a GREAT motivator, too. I need the support!!
Alyssa says
Ran 34.1 last week! Goal is 40 this week…8 down, 32 to go!
Karen says
I’m going for 15 again this week! Yesterday’s crazy warm weather helped out a lot already
Michele says
Goal: 16-20. Need to stay on track for my next half!! Wish it was for a marathon, but I’m not up to that yet!
Jessy says
This week’s goal is 30 miles. I ended up a bit short of my goal last week so I’m SUPER motivated to nail it this week!
Katie says
My goal this week is 28 weeks! It was freezing (literally) today, but thank God it’s going to warm up later this week. Winter running is NOT my idea of a good time.
Katie says
And by 28 weeks I mean 28 miles…oops
Allie says
My goal was 10 miles and I didn’t quite make it due to some time out of town, but I am already on a much better track for this week.

Liz says
28! Finished recovery week yesterday after doing the Hamilton, Ontario Marathon Nov 4 in lieu of the canceled NYC marathon.
Char says
My goal this week is 15 miles. That means I won’t reach my goal for the month (which realistically is unrealistic for me). I made my goal based on me living in a perfect world which I do not! Ha ha! Still happy to be getting some mileage in!
Melissa H says
My goal for the week is 20 miles. It’s been fun wearing a pedometer and watching how fast they add up!
Laura says
This week my goal is 23 miles. Last week it was 22 and I only did 14 🙁
I really want to push myself to make my goal this week…I know it’s going to be challenging!!
Brittney says
My goal is 12 miles this week! 🙂
Chelsey says
My goal for the week is about 25 miles. I’m hoping to hit 50 by Thursday. Half way there! I fell behind on Friday. (Who can drag themselves out for 4 miles when traveling for business and working 10+ hours? Not me apparently). I made it up with two six milers on Saturday and Sunday. Throw in Zumba twice a week and weights, and I’m torched. That pie on Turkey Day will be SO worth it.
Happy Running! 🙂
Amanda says
Ugh, the miles are not going as planned, still getting out there though. Hoping to get around 20-25 this week. Hope everyone runs happy!!!

Haven’t been too good about getting my runs in the last couple of weeks so my goal is to run 3 days, maybe 4 (already ran today) and would love to get to 10 miles this week. Will also take yoga at least once.
Stephanie says
This week my goal is 50 miles 🙂 I have heard how amazing that book is and I WANT it!!!
lucy says
I’m aiming for at least 30 miles, already at 17 for the week which is a great start!
Becca Barnes @rootsandreflections says
23+ so POTM so far! Ready for 21 miles this week! I have 20 miles on the training calendar and the extra mile is just to make me push a little harder!
Jenny-O says
My goal for the week is to stick to my first week of marathon training!!!!
Lauren @ mostly i run says
Happy that I managed to exceed my goal last week despite a tricky schedule 🙂

Regina says
My goal for this week is to stick to my training plan despite the dropping temps!
Bridie says
I was hoping for 50 miles, but my lower leg has been really sore ever since doing a really hilly / steep trail race over a week ago. No miles yesterday means this will be a hard one to achieve.
Amy says
We’re getting pounded with snow right now, and coming off being sick, I’m hoping to get 12 in this week. Sad, but I’ll be happy if I can do that!

Divya @ Eat.Teach.Blog. says
My goal for the week is to accomplish all three goals for Tina Reale’s Best Body Bootcamp! =) I haven’t been so great with the goals this past week, so I’m going to STEP IT UP this week!
Liz says
My “return to running after a stress fracture” program has me running a set number of minutes, so I’m ballparking all those days add up to about 15 miles or so for this week. Unfortunatley a couple of these days have to be before work when 27-ish degrees so I’m not looking forward to those days 🙁
Margaret B says
I am going for 30 miles this week.
Great job our your Marathon PR!!

My goal this week is 10 miles. Ive fallen off the running bandwagon and am trying to get back into the zone.
Shawn says
My goal for this week is 25!!
Elizabeth says
My goal this week will be 45!
Ree says
I plan to run 12.5 miles. I just missed it last week with 12.48 miles but we had a snow storm and a huge chunk of snow took out my windshield (see @mariebenitez for pic)
so 12.48 wasn’t bad at all. I want to beat 12.5 but that is my minimum goal

22 miles for me this week, hopefully!!

I want to try and hit 13-15 miles this week and run every night.

Hoping for 20 miles this week. I have a bunch of tests so I need to make time to clear my head : )
Erin says
Of course, right when you started this challenge, I started doing a night of strength training at the Y and a night of Body Attack, so my running goal is waaay over-inflated for the month. But realistically, I should be able to get 10-15 in this week…
Catherine B says
My goal this week is 32 miles. With a 17 mile LR 🙂
Suzanne says
I am hoping to FINALLY get into the POTM game this week with 10 miles 🙂
Julie Nicole says

Amee says
My goal this week is 25 miles.
Nicole says
I ran 26.5 this week (sweet! more than a marathon!)….hoping for the same – or MORE – this week…..Hoping I can do more miles outside now that it’s cooler!
Leana says
My goal for this week is 20 miles! I’ve already got a half marathon from yesterday under my belt so this should be doable!
adria biasi says
my goal was to get in a 15 miler, i had in scheduled for tomorrow, but i woke up feeling like running so i busted it out today 🙂
Steph says
This week is a bit of a rest week after a half marathon yesterday. Lots of races coming up though, so I can’t take too many easy days. I’m hoping to get to 15 this week.

My goal for this week is 12. I really wish it could me more, but after my last race I have had a nagging shin pain and I’m hoping to not make it worse.
Stacey says
I’ll aim for 10 again this week. Didn’t quite make it last but better than the 1st 3 days.
Jen @ Such a Funny Fat says
I’m aiming for 17 miles this week… The weather turned cold/windy overnight so this might be challenging! I’m hoping it settles down a little because I have a 10 mile long run planned. Wish me luck!
Julia H. @ Live Young & Prosper says
My goal is to just run one day this week, honestly! It’s not that I can’t run or don’t like running…it’s that it’s already SO COLD where I live! I hate treadmills, so it’s run outside or don’t run at all for me…time to find some cold weather motivation!
April Ockerman says
My goal for this week is 15 at least. Trying to hit 3 miles a day!
April says
Goal for last week: 5 mile. Miles logged for last week: 6! Not much compared to those more seasoned, but I’m slow and busy. This week I’m getting ambitious and planning on 8 miles, really tough since it’s finally cold outside.
Coach [email protected] says
Monica, Congrats on the PR. Next goal, an easy Las Vegas Rock ‘n Roll Half? I’ll be there. Someone may talk me into the full but I am going to Vegas to party first, run second. No time goals if I run the full.
I was really pleased with your training work efforts and a 3:53 PR means you did everything right, even if it hurt. You eat so much better while you run now. The back to back long runs under 3 hours each work and then combine it with speed work, hill training and it can really make a difference.
I know you were going between my Sole Runner plan and another. I can help any of your readers if they are interested. Thanks for the plug.
Train Focused, Coach Steve
Alyssa p. says
Another 20 on the list for this week.
Brooke S says
Last week my goal was 12 miles and I only did 3 as I have been super sick. My goal this week is 6 miles, I am hoping whatever is plagueing me is done by the end of the week so I can get a few miles in. Grrrr…germs.
Sidney Day says
I am aiming for 30-40 miles this week!
Angie says
My goal for the week is 19 miles. I passed my goal by one mile last week, hoping to achieve and pass my goal again this week. The weather here in MD has been beautiful!!
Debbie says
My goal for this week is 20 miles. 5.5 already down today, and I’m using the Marine Corps Marathon Turkey Trot 10K as my long run on Saturday (with an added mile after the race). Love checking in, it helps keep me accountable and motivated seeing everyone else’s goals and accomplishments. Btw, congrats on your “last” marathon!
Jaclyn says
Goal is 15 miles this week!
TrinaH says
My goal is 26 this week. I ran 23 last week, but missed 3 the day I forgot my sports bra and ended up using the elliptical instead of the treadmill. I may need to implement a gym bag checklist!
Wendy says
Life totally interfered last week so I want to pick up some extra miles this week. Hoping to get 25.
Steph says
19 miles this week! Hopefully the weather co-operates this week and doesn’t rain on my run days. I hate running in the rain =( I missed my goal last week, but that’s mainly because I moved my long run from Saturday to Sunday, so I’ll have extra next week!
Kaylie says
Going for 25 miles this week starting with a solid 5 later today!
Tara says
26 on the docket for me this week!
Jennifer V. says
My goal is 19 for this week! Marathon training begins!!

I have 8 walking miles on the schedule for this week. Not bad for a pregnant chick in her *almost* 8th month.
Jean says
My goal is to stave off this nasty cold so I can do all my planned runs!
Kathleen says
Goal is 17 miles or so. My legs are still tight from my long run so I am hopeful!

My missed my goal last week by .72 miles ( I can’t do math) this week I will fun 35 miles!

Katherine Allen says
Well since I have a half marathon on Sunday (with my brother! his first half!) I’m going to say a conservative 18 miles. 😉 We’ll see. Looks like I’ll be teaching a few extra classes at the gym this week so maybe it’ll be more like 15. hmmmmmm…. Either way I’ll be moving!
Marcy says
Had a slump week after last weeks half marathon…but today is a NEW week!!! Plan to run 15-20 miles this week.
🙂
Joan says
I originally had 26 on my shedule but I think I’m going to have to up it if I want to hit my goal this month. Last week had some things come up and I wasn’t able to run as much as I had scheduled so I’m playing make up this week. I’m shooting for 30 or more.
SaraRM says
My goal is to stay focused on my training plan and keep up with the much needed speedwork. Like the above pic, “hoping” for a pr will not get me anywhere!
Heather says
I’m aiming for another 15 miles!
Rachelle says
Goal for this week: Make sure to listen to my body and especially my hip. It has been giving me troubles so if it hurts I need to stop running.
Traveling this week so the plan is to do at least 30 minutes of something everyday.
Kathy says
Going for another 30 this week!
Kate says
I’m going big this week-35 miles or bust!
Amy H. @ Run with Perseverance says
My goal is 16 miles! I’ve already got 3 under my belt, with another 2 planned for today
Caroline says
Still in recovery mode so I’ll be doing some cross training like biking and elliptical, which won’t count into the weeks total but will still definitely count:) Between walking and running I’m planning to do 8 to 10 again.
Karin says
My goal for the week again is 9. I am thrilled that I hit my goal last week. I had a great 4 mile (farthest so far) run so I could end the week with a 2 mile run. That made it much more fun and gave me the feeling of an “easy” run. I will be a runner by the end of November!
Jory says
Goal of 50 miles for the week. Taking a rest day today after a 10-mile trail race yesterday!
Shanna says
My goal for the week is 15 miles with lots of cross training & yoga sprinkled in between!
Hadas says
my goal is 13 miles (already ran 5) + 26.1 on Sunday in Philly. I am nervous, I trained for NYC, my last 20 was on October 15, since them I am tapering…

Amy says
Goal for the week is 26 miles.
Brooke says
Supposed to go for 40 this week, but it turned REALLY cold here in Chicago, might have to double up treadmill workouts a few weekdays to get there because I can’t handle a middle length run in this weather just yet!!!
Kayla says
I’m hoping for 40 miles this week. Started today by getting in 8! 🙂
Nikki says
Goal for this week is to do a long run this weekend–hopefully Saturday, aiming for 7!
Angela Simparosa says
My goal for the week is 12 miles!
Monica says
I hate to waste food but next time you burn your toast, toss it. Burnt/charred foods contain acrylamide which is a carcinogen and very toxic to the body.
Kelli says
I walked 2 miles with my kiddos last night. My IT band is killing me, so I’m hoping to get in 20, but I’m afraid there will be much more walking than running this week. 🙁
Christin@christinjoyful says
My goal for this week is to run/walk more than 10 miles…I did a 5.3 mile run on saturday, and I did a 10k the saturday before that…I want to do at least that plus another run 🙂
Denora says
My goal for the week is 25 miles. I’m leaving for Vegas on Friday night, and hoping to find a working treadmill in my hotel so I can finish out my week strong! Or I’ll be the crazy chick running down the strip dodging people 🙂

Well, I didn’t do a whole lot of “piling on” my miles last week — but I did learn to stand on my head (is there a column on the spreadsheet for that?)! This week I’m going to aim for 12 miles. And now that it’s on the internet, I hope it’ll keep me honest!
Tara says
Weekly Goal is 10 miles.
Did 2 this morning (thanks to the mild New England weather, I was able to get up early and hit the pavement!)
and hope to start training for a half marathon this weekend with my husband!

I started off my week with a nice hike yesterday!! The terrain was totally unexpected: everglades + desert + lake house = awesome hike!
15 miles this week! 🙂
Hilary says
My goal for the week is 20 miles.
Megan By says
30 mile goal for this week. I’ve been having a rough time since day lights savings time took away my ability to run outside (Its dark before I get home from work and I won’t run alone in the dark). Guess I’m going to need to remember how to love the treadmill! It hasn’t been fun thus far.
Jen says
Since my husband will be out of town most of this week my #potm goal is 15 miles

It’s chilly in WI this week but I’m still aiming for 8 miles this week!

45. It is going to be tricky because my husband will be out of town, and so there will be no one to watch my kids during my normal 5 am runs…

My goal for this week is 30 miles!! And also to bounce back from a disappointing week last week (that will probably be harder than actually doing 30 miles.) I’m hard on myself 🙂
Elizabeth says
love her blog! my goal for the week would ideally be to qualify for Boston on Sunday. But due to the hurricane, and life, that might not be possible. So then my goal is to PR and not mentally give up!

amanda says
Hoping for 20 this week, including an XC 8k race Saturday morning!

Jenna K says
I haven’t hit my weekly goal yet (boooo), but I have been making extra effort to go another quarter mile at the gym or walk to the mailbox instead of hitting it up on my way out. My goal this week is 14 miles, and I’m hopeful that I can reach it!
Ashley F. says
Shooting for 15 miles this week!

I did meet my goal last week! I think this week will be tougher though… the weather is not cooperating. I guess this means I need to toughen up and put some extra layers on…. my goal for the week is 12 miles.

Becca says
My pile on the miles is no bueno 🙁
I lost my falir for running after my half marathon after a host of aches and pains that was making running miserable. And I’ve been afraid to get back into lest my aches and pains flair up again. Oh and the whole “starting over” crap.
I sure could use a motivational book!
Lynn says
I’m aiming for a solid 20 – two 5 milers and a 10 next Saturday.

2 yoga classes and run 10 miles!
Happier Heather says
Mile Markers is a great book!
I did 6.1 miles last week and am shooting for 10 miles this. I’m slowly building back up after taking some time off. Hoping the new shoes I bought this weekend will help with motivation!

Nicole@ livingthesweetlifestl.wordpress.com says
My goal for the week is to ride 20 miles on a stationary bike…probably not the normal type of goal that everyone else has but with a knee injury and surgery in a few weeks this is sadly the only cardio I can do 🙁

How do I always forget about Twitter?!

I’m loving this challenge!
Leah says
Although my starting goal was only 15 miles per week, I did 16.9 last week. That means my goal this week is 17.50. I will have to take wednesday off for a church function, and I only got 2 in yesterday. 3.1 per day baby!

15 miles for me — still nursing an ankly injury, so they’ll probably all be on the elliptical.
