It's that time of year

It's time to get back in it - starting with the review of 2009, and heading into what's on the calendar for 2010!


2009 race recap:
March 7 - Run with the Wind 25K
March 21 - St. Patty's Urban Adventure Race with Brooke
April 26 - OKC Memorial Marathon
May 16 - Ozark Greenways Adventure Race - Durty Nellies team
June 13 - Boom Town Days 1/2 marathon - 1:59
July 25 - Dusk till Dawn with Amy
October 11 - Chicago Marathon


I thought it was going to look much more sparse than that - so I'm OK.  Next up, I figured up my totals for 2009 - I broke it into actual miles ran, actual miles biked, and finished it up with a generic category for hours of other stuff.  This includes 2-12 hour Adventure Races that I was unsure of actual distances for, hours in spinning, yoga, and other miscellaneous run, bikes, hikes that I only logged time for.


Totals:
Running Miles - 1059.75
Biking Miles - 569.5
Hours of other - 115.5 


Summary for 2009 - overall it was a good year.  There was too much going on personally for me to have had a great year running wise so no major PR's.  But, I'm happy with where I'm at and looking forward to some improvements for 2010.


So, the game plan for 2010...


Races:
Run with the Wind 25K - February 27
Planning to tackle the Fat Tire Duathlon Series as a team with Brady - I'll run, he'll bike - there are 3 races - 2 in March, 1 in April
St. Patty's Urban Adventure Race - March 20
St. Louis Marathon - or maybe just 1/2 - April 11
Ozark Greenways Adventure Race - May 22
Mother road Marathon in Joplin - just to support the local race - Oct. 10
Dusk till Dawn Adventure Race - date not announced yet
I'll probably add, remove and tweak heavily between now and then, but it's a start.
  
So far my mileage for 2010 is not to par because of my severe case of the funk - only 15.5 miles total.  I plan to remedy that this coming week and weekend!  Power of positive thinking will help to get me through this dang cold!


Till then, run on, ride on!
