june 2009
june 2009 - month #3 in kentucky. i was initially anticipating some serious chill time at the end of the month but my position at work was extended so back to ky it is. took advantage of having easy runs on the schedule and slowed down to avoid dying in the heat (ran in 90+ degrees a few times). running in such warm temps (80+) has been great training mentally because i know i can handle any temp and don't allow myself to wimp out of a run because it's "too hot".

WAHOO 200 miles in a month! Oh nice ring too ;-)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteHey, I just found your blog. I love two things already: the quote about small things accumulating, and that you love dreaming big. Marathon running (specifically, qualifying for Boston) started as nothing more than a HUGE dream. And now I've run 5 of them, and Boston is going to happen this year, I know it!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to reading more.
great mileage...can't believe you only took 3 days off all month....and congrats on the engagement...way to sneak that in there at the end of the post...
ReplyDeleteThe ring is beautiful!!! Congratulations!! I am very happy for you both.
