Finished my last run of 2010 this morning at Fittek on the treadmill. I can't believe I actually sort of like the treadmill now....more on that another time.
I really had no goals in 2010 except my loose "hopes" of:
1. lose weight down to 200 lbs., then race.
2. keep working on my left foot injury, trying to run smoother and with less pain.
3. be consistent and try for 2000 miles overall walking and running, without it stopping #2 above. As year went on, I wanted to get 1000 miles of running.
I made a decision a few years ago to not race unless I weighted under 200 lbs and I've kept that promise, which of course means I do not weigh anywhere close to 200 lbs. I weghted 236 yeasterday, my waist is about 43". I'm 52y9m old.
In 2003 I lost 32lbs in 8 weeks by eating a balanced diet of 1700 cal as part of a diet study at the local college. I felt great, my waist was 34". I've not been able to duplicate that since.
Anyway, my milage totals for 2010 and lifetime:
Totals
2050 miles............lifetime miles = 84,013
1008 runing miles
no races
no running streaks
little speedwork until the last 4 weeks.
lots of hiking...more on the hiking trips with later posts.
What about 2011 goals? Lose weight? Run more? Do a race? Volunteer?
