Sooo today marks 2 years since I began my relationship with running! I said it last year and I’ll say it again this year but I NEVER saw myself as a runner, but I’m SO happy that I am!
This year in running was pretty good for me, the beginning of my running year started off kind of rough due to an extreme amount of snow the day we got back from Houston and it didn’t let up until late March… so that lead to a lot of treadmill running and days off = no good.
After I ran the Nike Women’s Half in D.C. in late April I got more on track with my running and started getting back to the consistency that I had before. I also got married the day after I ran in D.C. to my amazing runner husband!
I ended up running 18 races since last January 17th, running at least one race in every month except for March. I also totaled my mileage at: 872.07 from January 17, 2014 – January 17, 2015. I definitely dipped from last year but like I said I took WAY too many days off in the beginning of the year but it’s not gonna happen again this year!
I feel like this was the year where I would have quit running if I were going to (I know crazy talk!) but I feel like since I made it through this second year and freaking love it even more that this is going to be a hobby that sticks for life!!!!
Goals for this running year:
One is the same as for my calendar year, to PR in 4 distances (5k, 10K, half marathon, and full)
Keep running!
Run more races than last year
at least have 1000 total miles by January 17, 2016
How long have you been running?
