Whew! On the last
day of March, marking the end of the year’s first quarter, I am right on
schedule. My current total is 504.05 miles.
OK, technically I
have to run 504.5 miles per quarter to rack up 2,018 miles by the end of this
year. So maybe I’ll take the dogs out for a lap or two around the block. (Just
kidding.)
I ran 184.8 miles
in the month of March and completed the last event in a six-race winter 5K
series. Honestly, I’m relieved to be on-track, particularly as I have some
longer races coming up (along with marathon training), and I will have to block
out some of those dreaded taper and rest days.
So I’d hate to be behind on my year-to-date
mileage total at this point.
Gotta say: I am
thankful that spring weather seems to be lingering rather faithfully. It’s a
lot more fun (Read: less boring) to run longer distances outdoors (especially
in pleasant weather) than to stomp out miles on an indoor track or gym
equipment. Although I appreciate having those options available, I really
prefer being out and about.
So here’s to three more quarters of running 500+
miles to mark the year’s goal.
Stop back, and
see if I make it (for the second year in a row).
