Day 267, 98 To Go

September 24, 2013

I will dispense with the misery that is my running this week.  Although my time was not horrible, it was the fastest I was able to go.  If I were being chased by a lion, I would have been eaten in the first 30 seconds (as opposed to maybe a minute or two in a normal week).  The lion would have been extra happy since I am a bit more plump than normal.  Maybe only about 5 pounds, at most, heavier than when I left for Brazil, but 5 pounds nonetheless.

Here are my numbers:

Time: 25:00

Distance: 2.73 miles

Pace: 9:09/m

Max Pace: 7:56/m

Calories: 264

Avg HR: 127

Max HR: 138

I know this is a bit late, but I finally decided to put together my monthly numbers for August.  Sure, it is about a month late, but I had no choice!

So, here are my monthly numbers:

              Total Miles | Total Time
January          52.24    |    9:25:00
February         52.01    |    8:40:07
March            74.57    |   11:30:00
April            75.59    |   12:00:16 
May              79.51    |   12:31:00
June             82.35    |   12:40:19
July             92.09    |   15:01:00
August          100.52    |   16:15:00      

Here is a week by week breakdown:

Steve's Total Miles Logged: 100.52
Partial Week 1: 17.38
Week 2: 23.03
Week 3: 24.38
Week 4: 22.34
Partial Week 5: 10.81

Total Running Time: 16:15:00

Honey's Total Miles Logged: 21.17
Partial Week 1: 4.28
Week 2: 6.42
Week 3: 6.30
Week 4: 4.17
Partial Week 5: 0.00

Total Running Time: 4:10:00

Once again, I have surpassed my overall total miles for the month!  I had three weeks where I surpassed 20 miles and I almost surpassed 20 four weeks in a row.  Laziness was the reason I didn't do it four weeks.  This is significant only because this means that I have a good enough of a base to start training for a marathon...should I choose to do so.

Not sure yet...

Oh, and Honey had a decent month as well.  It was not her best, but her second best.  Still a good month!!

Run for Life!!
