6 tonight to bring 2011 to a close..and what a year it was for running! I set PR's in distance run in a week, day, month, and year. I also accomplished some amazing (for me) races, especially during my fall training cycle. I ran my first marathon, i closed the year with 3 fast 5ks, the last being a PR 16:23! Overall, I was very happy with 2011 and i hope/know that 2012 will be even better. I have 3 goals: run over 2000 miles, break 16:00 in the 5k, and run 2 more marathons (hoping for sub 3:00). my first big race back will be in freiburg, germany in a half-marathon in april, i also plan on running the prague marathon in may.

 

tonights run was a good one, 50 degrees, i sweated in a light hat, gloves, sleeves and shorts, never had such nice weather on dec. 31st before. splits:

1- 7:02.6

2- 7:06.8

3- 7:24.0

4- 7:07.8

5- 6:57.9

6- 7:00.4

TOTAL-- 42:39, 7:06.5 avg pace
