Theme of the month: "When I write, I feel like an armless, legless man with a crayon in his mouth."- Kurt Vonnegut
Came
across this quote and it seemed fitting for this month. I almost
missed posting this month but suddenly remembered. Everything
just seems a little bit out of sync this month for me but it is getting
better everyday.
Anyways, been a good month overall getting
back into training along with a trip to Maryland to run the JFK50 miler with
Rebecca getting her the qualification run she needed to run the Vermont
100 next summer. We ran the whole race together having a great day play outside finishing in 8:55. So fun! Also got in 2 Skimo races at
Abasin this month as well. Been a fun month for sure!
Training Update
Volume
is starting to return this month to somewhat normal amount of hours per
month. I do like to see that monthly hours over 60 if possible. Of
course I track everything, including stretching, massage, ect... Yeah I
am a data dork for sure.
Caught up with Rebecca, Paula, Debra, Donnie, GZ, two Denver Trail Runners group runs this month. Got out and about a little bit more this month than last month.
Here are the total hours broken down by activity for the month.
