Looking Back at 2007
2007 was an interesting year. I “ran” or should I say participated in three marathons: Country Music, Chicago, and Rocket City. I strained a tendon in my foot that forced me to take 2 weeks off in February but also pushed me to spend time in the pool. Consequently, I did my first tri in May.
I switched training plans and used the Pfitz plan or some variation thereof and really like the results. By the end of the year I have seen my pace increase. resulting in 4 PRs this year, 5k @ 23:30, 10k @ 51:32, Half Marathon @ 1:55:01, and the Marathon @ 4:28:21.
- Total miles: 2,009
- Average monthly mileage: 167
- Average weekly mileage: 38.6
- Races: 9
- PRs: 4

The Pfitz plan obviously works well for you and has me intrigued.
Solid mileage, though…that has to be key!!
Way to go!

Whew, 2009 miles. Almost seems like two too many. Congrats on all the PR’s, they sure help validate the training.
Looking forward to keeping up with your progress in 2008.

Looks like it was a great year, and talk about making lemonade by doing the tri! May 2008 be even better & injury free!!
