Actually a little less then that to reach my first 100 miles for the year. I'm not going to lie - I am happy and sad about this both at the same time. I am happy because I can't believe I have run almost 100 miles this year but I am sad because I thought I would have already accomplished this by now. Since my goal is to run about 80 miles a month on average - I should have been there and done that. Regardless... overcoming a stress fractured foot to start the year and training for my 3rd half marathon in 90 days...I am still a happy runner!
Which brings me to my accomplishments this week. I have already run a total of 23.57 miles this week! Phew...I am tired. I think that is the furthest I have ran in a week combined. Not bad for someone who just began running in August of last year. I must say, I have MUCH respect for marathon runners. I can't believe they can make their legs run that far in a single race :)
Anyways, I am proud of myself this week. I found my mojo again (even if it meant running at the gym) and I was able to run 5 times this week, 4 days were in a row! Half Fanatics here I come!!!!
Power Songs this week included: The Finish Line - Train
Born This Way - Lady Gaga
Jai Ho - Slumdog Millionaire Sndtrk
909.22 miles to 1000 miles for the year!
p.s. Thanks Rory for making me check out Twitter. I know I was reluctant to do so but I have met some amazing runners there and it's a great forum to expand my running family!
Congrats!! Stick with it; you're doing fantastic!! I'm also glad that you are on Twitter since that's how we met! :)
