2017 Mileage

So ... I ran a total of 1,550 miles in 2017. This was my highest mileage year ... ever (in twelve years) ... despite being forced to rest for seven weeks this fall. I use to feel really accomplished if I reached 100 miles in a month, maybe closer to 130 with good weather and an open schedule. But I hovered around or above 150 miles during many months this past year. I'm proud of all I accomplished and learned. I had a good pace (pun intended!) up until the point of my injury mid-October. I coached ... a lot. I ran about 5-6 days a week, sometimes 2-3 times a day with clients. I ran 2-3 hours most days, but only got in 4-6 miles during that time. Running was different for me last year. Mileage by myself was limited, except for a long run approximately once a month and some low miles with the stroller.

I am thankful for 2017 and for all who joined me during some of my 1,550 miles. Thank you for joining me and for allowing me to be a part of your journey.

Congratulations to Darcey B, who won a free entry into the January Women Working on Wellness Accountability group, by guessing 1,500. You all set the bar REALLY high with your guesses at my mileage!
