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

 

Feb 2016 updateBIG month – started Spring season a month early, marathoned last 3 weekends of February.  No break in my race schedule ‘til 4th of July.  FAAANNTASTIC challenge!  Do the math – that’s 20 consecutive race weekends.  Building CONSISTENCY & ENDURANCE in 2016.  Last Fall, folded after 11 weeks.  Big difference? only 4 East Coast races this trek.

 

Race ReCap:  Moab, Vegas & Tulsa: two ultras, one marathon, one Half.  Never previously run trail nor an ultra distance (even in training) – now have 3 trail races, a 50K & a 55K under my belt.  Next month’s focus: NUTRITION  Bonked during both ultra runs.  Gotta learn how to eat & what to eat, when running > 6 hours.  Another DOUBLE CHALLENGE planned in late March: Saturday-Sunday road marathons in Lamar CO & Clayton NM, part of Mainly Marathon’s Dust Bowl Series.

 

Mileage ReCap:  Still on track, ended February at 341.07 miles (5 miles ahead of goal).
