Run the Year Motto:  Run, Crawl, Walk, Conquer, Dominate 2,016 miles in 2016

 

March 2016 update:  another HUGE month – marathoned all 4 weekends of March.  Ticker: 7 consecutive race weekends (February start).  FAAANNTASTIC challenge!  Building CONSISTENCY & ENDURANCE in 2016.

Race ReCap:  one ultra & 4 marathons – including my first DOUBLE CHALLENGE, 2 marathons over 2 days in 2 different states.  Highlight: Bataan Memorial Death March on White Sands Missile Range NM.

Next month’s focus: INTENSITY 

8 trail runs this year – BIG learning curve.  While increasing endurance (longer distance runs) AND switching road to trail, focus shifted from steady pace to survival (eating during a run, staying fit & uninjured).  Move back to road mid-April.  Speed work, INTENSITY, fearless DOWNHILL running.  Uphill I’ve got, I pull back Downhill.

Mileage ReCap:  Still on track, ended March at 500 miles (4 miles short of goal).
