I would like to run at least 1750 miles for the year--that will only be about 200 miles more than this year. As to races, I want to run a good marathon (no major cramping or slow finish). I'm going to try to find at least a couple of half-marathons to run. Of course I'd like to PR at all distances (and that should be do-able). I haven't yet chosen any particular races.

My 2009 goals are: Sub 1:20 half marathon in Feb if I can train well & lose the 7 pounds or so I need to to get to a decent race weight (if not sub 1:22:30), a second half in the build-up to Berlin in September with the same goal. My 2nd Marathon hopefully in Berlin on September the 20th, and hopefully my 1st sub 3:00:00 And possibly a sub 5 minute mile if I find the time to tune up for a couple of weeks for a track attempt or a mile race i know in Battersea Park - London. Good luck all!

I would love to run 2009 miles in 2009. Break 19 minutes in a 5k. And win my age group in my local race series as I have come in 3rd place the past 2 years.

I'm going for a measly Tongue

750 miles next year. I will probably surpass it. I want to improve my half marathon time at the Napa to Sonoma Half in July. I want to get under 2:10 I want to improve my 5k time. I want to improve my 10k time. I want to run injury free. I want to run the Healdsburg Half again in October. I just want to run. Big grin

5k - 23:30

10k - 49:00

Half - 1:48:34

Full - 4:01:28

Working toward hip nirvana.

I want to run 2009 km in 2009 Wink

That's about 1250 miles. That would be a 10% increase over this year. I've got some PRs to smash and would like to run a half-marathon. I would also like to find a pair of shoes that are perfect for my long runs. Good luck HappyDuck!

1000 miles in 2009 2007 + 2008 = 1200+ - miles.

Run until the trail runs out.

My goal for 2009 is 1200 miles. On my calendar so far are the Indy Mini, Flying Pig half, inaugural Seattle RnR race (don't know which distance yet since they haven't posted course info) and a fall marathon. I bought my first bike in September so some local duathlons are in the plan as well. I would like to do my first under 30:00 5k as well, I came close this year.

Okay 2008 recap first is most important before moving inot 2009. 14 official marathons 177.5 miles over 5 days a nice amount of miles with a steady 10% increase as the year and races allowed. Fastest marathon 3:19 Slowest marathon 4:12 (6:22 if you consider the last day of the ultra back to backs) 5K of 18:28 half marathonof 1:28:?? 2009 Miles: 3000-3200 Races: Boston Qualifying marathon (hopefully in Houston) Ultra's: Run a hundred miler (hope for sub 24 hour but a finish will work) 50 miler as well Tri's: possible half Ironman This will be an eventful year coming up. I hope for great health and happy running.
