April

April

I think April would best be described as a month of extremes. Starting with the highest runner’s high after crossing the finish line of AR50. And ending with some post race blues that were turned into injury sadness and frustration when hearing the words “no running” 3 weeks later. In between those two extremes, I [...]

March

March

February didn’t stand a chance, even with a couple taper weeks thrown in there. 352.5 miles!!  That is a new personal record that I think will be sticking around for a while. March was a busy month with obviously so much running and in some beautiful places!   I started the month off with my [...]

February

February

Remember how close I was to a new monthly mileage high in January? Remember how I really considered going on a 5 mile run just to beat that old high by a fraction? Remember how I said that I decided not to because I had a feeling February was going to be a good month?  [...]

January

January

So close! January was only 4.7 miles off my highest mileage month ever (last March) coming in at 271.4 miles!

December

December

And just like that, the last month of 2011 is over! This month was busy.  Between races, holiday parties, running, the actual holidays, vacation and more races, I felt like I was go go go all month. Typically December is a lower month for me mileage wise since I am usually recovering from CIM.  This [...]

October

October

And just like that another month flies by!  I was talking with a friend this morning and we were seriously wondering where this year went.  It really feels like it was just March, how do we only have 2 months left of 2011?! Onto my monthly recap… I started October by crossing off one of [...]

September

September

Although September was my lowest month of running mileage for all of 2011, it was a big month full of tons of other exciting things!  So I am doing my best to focus on all those other amazing things and not a low (for me) number.  I will get it back up in October! When [...]

August

August

Good bye August, hello September! I am very happy to say goodbye to August because when I think of August I think of the word hot.  I do have mixed emotions about September though.  Although I love it because it means we are that much closer to my most favorite months of the year (November [...]

July

July

Oh July, you were just plain nuts.  I had a blast but I am glad you are over and I can move forward to a month with far less plans! The month started off with a very fun long weekend which included a long run in SF with some of my favorite ladies! I posted [...]
