Normally, I would keep track of the mileage on my shoes, but I'm just too lazy to go check garmin to figure that out. It's roughly 155 miles (give or take) on them. On average, my running shoes have lasted 300 miles...some more than others. I'm going to hope that this pair of shoes will last me until 10K race day next month.

• morning (hill training) run = 3.87 miles; time = 1:01:02; average pace @ 15:46
• walked dogs = 2.6 miles total

I'm semi-training for an upcoming 10k run. I can kinda cheat where I don't necessarily need to train for the distance because I can easily run 10k anytime and any day. The course is on a very hilly course, so I just need to train on hills. Now only if I can make an effort to train on hills regularly/weekly.

Week 1: Day 3 - 01 January 2020

• morning run = 5.54 miles; time = 1:25:29; average pace @ 15:28 mpm

• afternoon group ride = 20.4 miles; time = 1:21:30; average speed @ 15 mph

First run and first ride of the year. Off to a good start.

Week 1: Day 2 - 31 January 2019

• morning run = 2.68 miles; time = 39:51; average pace @ 14:52
• walked dogs = 2.6 miles total

My 2018 in review (stats are not 100% accurate as they are from Garmin)

- One 10K (run) event

- 12 hikes

- Total running mileage: 887.95

- Total cycling mileage: 2320.98

My original goal for cycling/bike was to ride 1,800 miles. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to meet that goal because it rained so much at the beginning of the year. I didn't have any running goals for the year. Now that I'm in a better financial situation, I can afford a half marathon in 2020. Because of this, my running goal for 2020 is to run 1,000 miles. Hopefully, the plan to run a half marathon will help me run regularly, four times a week. My other goal is to update my blog regularly so I can actually keep track of my mileage for both bike and running.

Week 1: Day 1 - 30 December 2019

• morning run = 3.34 miles; time = 52:19; average pace @ 15:40
• walked dogs = 2.3 miles total

Let's try this whole fitness blogging thing. I think because of my current job with way more hours and during daytime hours than what I was used to, it took me a while to get used it my new work schedule. It also didn't help that I had been running regularly at 5am since May. So I was always tired. I think I'm okay with my schedule now. I have a 10k run event, 40 mile bike event (same weekend as the 10k) and a 35 mile bike ride event. I think I need to sign up for a half marathon (October most likely) so I have a reason to keep running. I really wanted to run four days a week, but was always tired and lazy so I would run three days a week most of the time. Occasionally, there would be weeks with no runs and this bugs me. So I need to get back on track. Cheers to a new year?
