- May – Traveled to Europe to the Baltic, walked a ton there and ran on treadmill on cruise ship
- June – none, anniversary camping traveling (hike a bit while camping). Hit 365 days (1 year!) on June 9th!
- July – General training while trying not to die from the heat. This is also the month of foot surgery and my birthday! Made it to just over 400 consecutive days of 10,000 steps per day. Then … reset by surgery.
- August – Get back into training after surgery and hide from the heat.
Training note: My goal is to walk or run at least 10,000 steps per day. On days that I don’t run, I still normally walk 3 to 4 miles in the morning. Then the rest of the 10K steps are made up throughout the day. - September – No races.
- October 12 – Avondale 5k (Result = 29:52.2 elapsed, 9:33/mile)
- November 16 – Bohicket 5K (Result = 30:36.95 elapsed, 9:53/mile)
Crap! I went slower. OK, so the weather was bad – cold and rainy – but still, I got worse. Maybe because I wasn’t training like I should have been? And maybe because I hadn’t been watching my diet? Whatever the reason, I have to do better for the Cocoa Cup. - December 21 – Cocoa Cup 5k (Result = 31:06.18 elapsed, 10:01/mile)
And slower still. This is going the wrong direction. I must get back to training and eating correctly. If I don’t, I will be back where I started.
