1,000 Miles

I hit the 1,000 mile mark for the year this morning!  It's always exciting to see that number.  The breakdown by month:

January: 189.44
February: 156.30
March: 118.12
April: 162.06
May: 165.54
June: 170.64
Partial July: 44.36

Total: 1,006.46

Breakdown by activity:

Running:  405.27
Walking:  101.04
Cycling:  500.15

Almost identical numbers on my feet vs. on my bike!

I had an amazing run this morning.  We are still on Oahu so I headed up Tantalus.  I ended up running my third fastest on the entire 10 mile loop and my second fastest on the second half which is all downhill.  Strava also gave me my third best 5k!  It's funny - I'm not training for anything but I'm running strong these days.  Pressure free running = getting the joy back.

We're just past halfway, how is 2017 treating you?


Quick edit:  If you are a Strava user, check out Relive.  The site has been providing 3D videos of rides for quite some time but now they're also doing runs.  Here is my run from this morning: https://www.relive.cc/view/1075721591

2015 MapMyRun Year in Review

I received a fun email from MapMyRun this morning.  My Suunto Movescount is connected to MapMyRun and usually updates each day. They're a bit early with their "year in review" because I don't plan on stopping now, but the stats were cool anyway.

With three weeks to go, that's a lot of exercise!

I actually get tired of pizza during marathon training.  It is my go to fueling for long runs, which means it doesn't feel like a treat.

This is slightly lower than the miles I have in SportTracks, which I consider my "true" log.  Still working on hitting 2,000 for the year.

This is one full day per month!

I have no idea where it got a 7:51/mile run!  That is not in my official records, either.  I did a 3 mile tempo run at 8:31, pretty sure that was my fastest.

 

You know you're a runner when your longest run is longer than your longest bike ride!  Very proud of that 26.33 miles.   I'll do a full review on my goals and accomplishments in a few more weeks, but 2015 has been a good year.
