I did not recap my adventures on the pavement for January but came to the decision that I will start doing so on a monthly basis starting with February. A befitting new feature as February marked the month when marathon training was once again determining the daily running schedule. February also marked the month where for the first time in a time so long I cannot even remember when it took place last, (GASP!) I took a day off from running and rested. Well I did not just sit on the couch and eat Bon Bons, I walked twice and went to my Core Central Class (I cannot guarantee I would not have gone over the edge without that class), but I did not actually run.
Following now is a reflection of my running in numbers. It is always a bit surprising how my daily roytine translates into (f)actual numbers…
| Total Distance: | 198.5 miles |
| Total Time: | 47:21:04 min |
| Run Distance: | 177.4 miles |
| Run Time: | 22:41:04 min |
| Bike Distance: | 12 miles |
| Bike Time: | 1:00:00 min |
| Walk Distance: | 9.1 miles* |
| Walk Time: | 3:10:00 min* |
Shortest run: 5 miles
Longest run: 18 miles
Average speed: 7.47 minutes/mile
Strength & Endurance Class: 4 hours
Core Central & Abs Class: 4 hours
Yoga: 5.5 hours
*these numbers only reflect the long walks we do on Sundays, not the daily walks with the dog. Starting this month I will log our daily walks as well, because I need to get just a bit more anal.
