My hamstrings were very tight this morning and I was just feeling off so I took it really easy.  And so ends the year with:

 Miles 3,039.7
 # Days
 323
 Miles/Day 9.41
 Time 394:06:31
 Avg Pace
 7:46/mile

I ran in 14 races including:
  • 5 marathons (2 top 10 finishes and 3rd overall in the Utah Grand Slam)
  • 5 5Ks (5 top 10 finishes with 1 win)
  • 1 10K
  • 1 1/2 marathon
  • 2 Ragnar relays (including 2nd place overall at NWP)
And most importantly, I met a lot of people this year that share the same passion for running.  Thanks to everybody who made this a memorable year.  I hope that 2009 will bring even more memories.
