Notes
Let's rap about 2018.
Goals (from the Swamp):
1. Run two marathons this year, since I want to get back in an amount of shape.
2. Run my customary three or four half-marathons.
3. Hit 2000 miles.
4. Lose 5 or 10 pounds.
Year Records:
5k: 18:28, Haunted Hustle 10/20
10k: 42:45, Twilight, 5/26
Half: 1:28:37, Haunted Hustle, 10/21 (!!!)
Full: 3:08:02, Madison, 11/11 (PR)
So goals 1 and 2 were a slam dunk. Only got to 1600 miles this year, but did lose a little more weight. I didn't write down where I was starting from, so I'm not sure that it was five to ten pounds in total, but I did lose some weight. I have a note from January that I was at 185, but I don't know how much I trust that one.
Overall, this was a good year. I'd like to call out the Haunted Hustle as a huge thing - that half was great for me and was a real confidence builder. I believe that I didn't take more than 5 days without a run, which is better.
So what's next? Qualify for Boston 2020.
