A Runner's Journey

 I used to have no goals or keep track of my distance or my time when I took up running in 2002.  Later I started wearing a running watch and found mapping apps so I could know the distance.  I used RunningAhead after Voomaxer shut down at the end of 2011.

Lately I charted my running distance by month for 2012 till now:

In the first block, I had a goal of 30 miles/week, with one long run (10 miles or more) one barefoot run and a pace of 8:00/mile and I made all three goals most weeks for ages, until the wheels came off and I just couldn't do it any more. Yes, even in the winter, there was almost always one day warm enough for a barefoot run--my record cold was 27F but it was sunny and dry, so the pavement was warm.  The next phase was 100 miles/month, which again, I did until I couldn't keep up with it.  Finally, the phase I'm in now:  60 miles/month and I'm pretty psyched if I get below 9:00/mile, which happens a few times/month.

I Almost Feel Bad For Him. Almost.

 

Update: from 12:1 to 85:3

I'll grant him this:  At least he didn't take it down--most of the replies are brutal and have more likes than his post. 155:4 for my reply.

Damn! Gave him too much credit.
