The quest for 200 is now complete. There are 31 Days in March and though I did take seven of them off (Slack Ass), the remaining twenty-four days I pounded the pavement. When the dust settled, 216 miles!
I feel great that I not only set a high goal, but I reached it. Will I do it again, not sure. My legs felt great the first half of the challenge, but by the end of the month, they were done! I can usual gauge myself by how much zip I have at the end of runs, if I can pick up the pace at the end, I know I'm doing great. Towards the end of the month, there wasn't anything left, the zip was long gone. My toe injury and that 5K happened at the best time possible, had they been at the end of the month, there's no telling what would have happened. With some recovery, I hoping the effort this month will make the marathons easier.
There's nothing official about this, no shiny medal to show off, but this is going in the virtual display case. Yeah, I might be a Slack Ass, but since when do names mean anything?
