2011 Mileage

What a crazy year it's been!  2011 was the year I finally stuck to my goals & GOT ACTIVE.  Not just going to the gym 3/4 times a week (I actually gave up the gym completely & I do miss it some), but really getting out there & doing something.  I'm so glad I did too!  I had a great year!  I think, given the obstacles I was given this year (broken vertebrae & pregnancy), I had a great first year as a runner!  

My running mileage total for the year?  332.07 miles (over 71 hours!!).  I have no doubt that I could've hit (and likely surpassed!) 500 miles this year, had I not been sidelined twice.  I hope to be able to maintain a MINIMUM of 5 miles/week while pregnant (hopefully more), then I'll work at getting my mileage back up & aim for another half marathon some time in 2012.  One with better time!!

I only recorded 106.88 miles of biking.  It was a slow year for us, since I couldn't do off road stuff during the spring (thanks to the broken vertebrae) & the summer got so insanely hot!  I'd like to say I'll increase that next year, but since I'll be pregnant in the spring & have a fairly new baby in the fall, so I just don't see that being likely.  Sadly.  Biking is still my first love & I think it always will be.  (Is there a bi in my future?  Perhaps...)
