38F, NW 12 mph.  7:37 AP.  Felt pretty good again today, good run to start the new year.  Went out to the wind farms and back...a perfectly clear, cool day.  Time to taper now.

Also, time to point out that I am on top of the 2012 mileage board.  Enjoying it now since it will never happen again.

Top of leader board now ... & sub 3 in 2 weeks ... you are a rock star! :)

Happy New Year!

Ah yes, but you finished the year number 22 on the board - almost 3k miles - which is a pretty significant achievement on this board!

From Rye on Sun, Jan 01, 2012 at 20:45:26 from 174.27.105.171

Bonnie just past you. I agree, number 22 for the year is pretty darn good. Have a great week of tapering.

Congradulations on the Milage Board....Oh, I take it back! I just looked and your 2nd... :-(

JG - same to you!

dh - I did take notice of making the first page. 1200 miles more than last year...maybe 3k next year

IJR/Rye - yeah, it was a great couple hours while it lasted.

From JG on Mon, Jan 02, 2012 at 13:13:39 from 71.59.27.33

If you get a quick 10 in, you might be back up there .. For a couple more hours. Lol

From SlowJoe on Mon, Jan 02, 2012 at 13:21:17 from 74.195.74.62

I'll wait until Jan 1, 2013 to make my next move for the lead.

From Andrea on Mon, Sep 17, 2012 at 12:37:27 from 72.37.171.52

Can't ever be upset about a PR! I agree with I Just Run...training is super consistent with some hard workouts, no real taper - you can't expect to feel awesome. Great race, I'm looking forward to those big PRs that are coming up.
