Work at home run goal: crushing it

After Tripper last year posted a run goal of 600 miles in a year, I thought I might try the same thing. I had a goal of 40 miles in January, February, November, and December, and 55 the rest of the months. January was great, February had a slight injury and a bad cold, and only ran 12 miles. Well shit, I thought.

But wait! Now I’m home every day, and will be for the foreseeable future! I got to 61 miles today for March, and still have a few run days left! Maybe I can recover the terrible month after all,

That’s the attitude, well done. Can’t give up because the world’s gone mad.

Small world, that ST belongs to a guy I know.

Nice! I’m a bit behind this month, I had a couple of races planned but they were all cancelled. Back in a groove this week though.

I was pissed in February, the weather was mild but my knee hurt and I got the flu. Was planning just to see how many months I could top 50 miles, but with work-at-home for large chunks  of March and April, maybe I got a shot at making up for it.

My office mate had just signed up for a marathon. I can't imagine it'll go on. I usually need a race or something to keep motivated, but I liked the idea of trying to hit 600 in a year.

I'm an elliptical for life human being, I run during sports but for training I'm 100% anti-running. If you ever see me just running my advice is to follow because something is chasing us.

I can’t stand being in one spot like an elliptical or treadmill.

I said the same thing in grad school, though, about a group of students who’d run through the halls in the lab building. You won’t ever catch me doing that. You see me running, something going to explode or there’s free food.

I do think I’m in the minority of people, but I put on a show and vibe out for an hour.

Best we can, right? I’ve been knocking out laps around my neighborhood on my roadbike at night, I try to do at least 10 miles fast as I can around a 1.5 mile route. Keeps the mind right as much as the body.
