Logging Miles

Today’s Run:  3.58 miles

New Year’s resolution:  To keep track of all the miles that my husband and I run this year together.

A friend of mine told me on January 1 of this year that she had run 1,200 some odd miles in 2012.  Wow!!!  I thought that was pretty cool.  How did she know how many miles!?!  She simply wrote each day’s mileage on her wall calendar!  So simple.

So, this year, I am tracking each run on our wall calendar in the kitchen.  I am using a sharpie to write down the miles and then tallying the end of each week after the Saturday long run.  At the end of the month, I intend to figure up all the miles and put the results at the bottom of each month’s page so I can add them up easily.  Sounds like a great idea, right?

So, here is the month of January as it stands so far:

So, the numbers with circles around them are are running days with the mileage.  Hopefully, my math will be up to the task.

On a side note.  Today was the first day in ten days that it has not rained or snowed here in Mississippi.  So, for the first time in ten days, we ran in sunshine!  It was glorious!  Sunshine, on my shoulder, makes me happy!…
