Finished off 2011 in fine style. I ran 7.8 down to Marketplace and met up with a WAR group there. They decided to do 10, 5 out and back on Phoenix. I was going to peel off on Old Greenwood and head home after 3.3 going out, but I felt pretty strong and we were going at a good pace, so I just kept going. Did the full 10 with the group, then ran another 2.6 to go home. Which became my first 20-miler ever when there wasn't an impending marathon. Good group -- Lalita, Stacy, Kathy, Mary Jo, Dennis, Lionel and a couple of others I'm forgetting in an almost-senior moment. Reminded me that group runs can really be fun, and I need to do more of them. Week total, 65+. Month, 188. Year, 2260. That'll do for now. With more consistency in 2012, that figure should go up. PR? Maybe. Hopefully. |
