December 2010 in Review

Running – 102.4 miles over 17 runs.  My 4th 100 mile month of the year!  I focused entirely on running this month, in preparation for my next marathon on 1/9.  I had one long run and even one rare treadmill run.  Also had two speed workouts.  The 17 runs in the month was my high water mark of the year, and my 2nd most all time in a month, only trailing last Dec when I ran 19 times.  In fact, Dec is my 2nd highest month of running when you add up all my years logged (back to 1999).  January is the only higher month.  I ended the year with 1071.4 miles, beating my goal of 1000, and 270 more than last year.  I finished with 171 runs for the year, obliterating all prior years.  My previous best was 149, way back in 2001.
