2012 in Review


In 2011 I had a lot of running goals around race times and setting PRs. I accomplished a lot of those goals, but it wasn't as much fun as I thought it would be. In 2012 I decided to making having fun one of my main goals. 2012 turned out to be a pretty good year, despite struggling with a few injuries.
 
These were my 2012 goals:

Break 2:10 in a half-marathon
Complete a marathon
Complete an ultramarathon
 
I accomplished 2 out of 3. And I am happy with that.
 
Races run:
10ks: 1
Half-Marathons: 7 
Marathons: 2
Ultramarathons: 1
 
Total miles run:
970.8 (so close to 1000! maybe next year)
 
New states added:
Massachusetts
Maryland
 
A few highlights...
 
Earned another Heavy Medal with Rock n Roll Portland and Rock n Roll Seattle

 
 
Ran my first trail race...and hated it
 
 

Ran my first marathon and loved it!

 

 Ran my second marathon and almost swore off running
 
 
Ran my first ultra and made a huge checkmark on my bucket list

 
I am working on some goals for 2013...I think it will be a great year!
 
What are some of your running goals for next year?
