March 2019 update:  After marathoning 63 consecutive months, the streak ‘lived or died’ on March 30th.  Wise words from Dave Bell haunted me all week: ‘never schedule your marathon last week of a month.’  STRESSFUL lesson learned.  Had Saturday’s all-day RAIN EVENT included lightning, the buck would have stopped in Carmel, Indiana.  Yikes!  Too close for comfort.

Dave Bell?  The guy who’s streaking ahead of me – by 8 FULL years.  All hail the Chief.

February/March training miles met, but no progress on past sins.

Little too late?  Memorial Day is comin’ fast!

Next month:  Italy 🍝 🇮🇹   Eat, eat, eat!

Race ReCap: 3 medals, 1 DNF.  Arkansas, Arizona & Indiana.  4 states shy of all 50 😊

Marathoning Streak:  64 months; EVERY month, FIVE+ years.

Mileage ReCap: ended March at 1675 miles (only 605 miles to GO!)
