It is OCTOBER!! Where did September go? This means all of you in the 1,000+++ club have 91 days to get to 1,000. Are you on Track?? I am happy to report that I passed mile 1,000 during the You Go Girl Half Marathon. Last year I hit 1,000 in December, so I am sooo pleased to have hit this milestone so early in 2010. Need something to INSPIRE you to get out the door on these Gloomy Fall Days?
- CHALLENGE!!! 83 miles in October!! Email me your name, and Blog (if you have one) and I will send you a link to the 83 Mile Challenge Spreadsheet. Walk, Jog, Run, and Swim, track your miles on the spreadsheet and be listed on Tall Mom in November. Only 2.76 miles a day, you CAN and WILL do these. Start today!!! I know there are lots of Bloggy friends who will crush this, email me anyway, would love to have you in the CHALLENGE!!
Heard enough about You Go Girl this week?? TOUGH!! What a wonderful, amazing weekend. The memories made I will treasure. I have tons more pictures, so here are just a few... All the photos will be posted on Tall Mom Facebook Album HERE, more will be added so watch for that.

http://trackcoach-tressaabe11.blogspot.com/2010/10/jessicas-gifts-giveaway.html Good Luck everyone!
Thanks for the high five!
I have enjoyed all the photos of your race. It looks liek you girls had a great time!
are you feeling better????
i love the matching outfits you guys all had!!! really great event and well photographed, too!
i have fallen off the mileage recording. it is just not my running mentality now to track mileage and it works so well for me not to. i'm sad i'm no longer in the "club" though :( i will always be a tall mom fan though!
HIGH FIVE & HAPPY FRIDAY!
I love High Five Fridays!! I love being able to send all the well wishes for the racers! (I didn't register for the half/marathon this weekend since Hubbs was undecided. I don't want a no show on my record! So I'll be a "morning of" decider for this. I'll see what Hubbs thinks.)
Thanks for the High Five on my running insanity. It's bad when you know your insane! heehee
I love the posing! You look great in race photos. T looks like a running mag cover girl, she is soo focused. She is going to break new ground this fall and spring! So fun to follow!
Have a great day.
"Total Poser and proud of it" .... LOVE IT!! You have a great blog. I'm not sure I can commit to 83 miles in Oct. but I will do as many as I can!
Ok, I will attempt the 83 miles in October challenge. Maybe I can do better with this one than I did the last one. ;)
Great pics!! Happy Running!
Racing alone I will be at 65.5 - I should be able to get to 83 with little problems :D
I am so far on track to hit 1000 for the year, but my injury has already cost me 50 or so miles...
I just went to record my seven mile trail run I did this a.m. on the spreadsheet....we need October! : )
have a great weekend, and I just posted a compression sock giveaway too!
I'm giving myself a high five for hitting 750 miles on September 30th. Right on track for my 1000 mile goal (which I missed the sign-up for on your blog, but it was my plan anyhow!). AND second high five (hey, if we can't high five ourselves, who will?) for being challenged to run a 50 mile week and being at 47 miles with a 5k race on the schedule tomorrow. Highest mileage week EVER (by a lot).
Aww thanks for the high five, made my day! I just "liked" you on facebook:)
High Five to YOU for posting all those links. :) Have a great weekend!
Fun - a new challenge! Just emailed you. I want in - I'm running my first marathon this month.
Winks & Smiles,
Wifey
Well I'm officially in marathon training for the Goofy Challenge so put me on the October challenge. Assuming nothing bad happens I technically should be running closer to 95-100 miles this month!
It kinda feels good to be back on a schedule.
Yay! Thanks for the High Five! And good luck to everyone else running this weekend! I think I need to be more of a poser, my mom took some really awful pictures of me during our last 5k, so I've vowed to try smiling at least. =o)
You all are so inspiring...I am signing up for the October challange...2.76 miles a day. Wish me luck!
Sylvia
Yay, another mileage challenge! I love the encouragement and accountability. My personal goal is for 125 this month. Emailing you now.
Thanks for the High Five Mel! Love the photo of you in the corral! It could be in a magazine!
I missed the Friday High Five with my first marathon last weekend.
You can see pics here
