Totals for March:
Distance: 202.73 km
Time: 24:02
So, it's like I ran for a whole day...haha :) I am very pleased with my new high mileage total and am celebrating with some wings and beer today ;)
I decided to do a gentle 6k on the treadmill today instead of forcing the 8k. My legs feel kinda dead from all of the outdoor concrete/asphalt pounding. I don't like running on grass or trails though...I have weak ankles, and I feel unstable on soft surfaces.
A scary thought crossed my mind...I noticed in the signatures of one of the RR forum posters that there's an ultramarathon in TO in May. So, I looked it up and bookmarked the Ontario ultra website. My scary thought? "Hm, if I can complete a marathon, a 50k race isn't far off from that..." Ack! Somebody stop me, now!!
About Me
- anners
- I am an average, not-really-athletic woman who took up running in an attempt to lose weight. That was in the summer of 2004. In the beginning, I found it difficult to run continuously for 10 minutes. I ran my first half marathon in June 2005, and my first full marathon in May 2006. I lost about 25 lbs over time. In March 2010, I had a baby!! Now it is like starting from scratch again, but I am determined to stick to it!
