2008 Running Review
2008 was my second full year of running. My first full year, 2007, I managed to log 700.13 miles.
For 2008, my total logged mileage was 1020.99 miles. While not quite 100 miles a month like I attempt, I can't complain too much about that total mileage. An 85 mile per month average is nothing for me to sneeze at.
Total races ran:
5k x2
5k+ x1
10k x1
Half Marathon x1
Full Marathon x1
2008 featured my very first full marathon. I say first because I do have every intention of running another one in the future - possibly two this year (that plan is still far from being finalized.)
This year also featured my first canceled race - but I do have free entry for 2009 - I just hope they will allow Olive to run it too.
For the most part I'm pleased with the running I've done this year. I definitely want to keep improving - especially on my longer runs. When I ran my only 10k this year, I did manage to better my time from two years ago, and that makes me quite proud. My half and full marathon times aren't spectacular by any means, and I would definitely like to improve on the half marathon time at the very least.
