My Running Year in Numbers

1,414.4
The number of miles, including training and racing, covered during 2007.

163.5
Total miles run while participating in races ranging from 5 to 50 kilometers during 2007.

31
The longest distance, in miles, covered in a single run (during the Mendon 50k in November).

29
Total number of races, beginning with the 2007 Freezeroo Series Race #2 in January and ending with the Jingle Bell 5k in December, completed in 2007.

15
The number of those 29 races completed in 2007 which were at the 5k (3.1 miles) distance, the first being the Kyle's Run for Memory in March and the last, again, the Jingle Bell 5k in December.

During the month of December, I have consciously avoided sharing a “Running Week in Review,” as I had done so religiously for the weeks that came before. This is due to my having pulled back from training in order to take a little break. Despite this recent break, this year has, however, been a pretty ambitious one for me, relative to running, and I think it does warrant a quick recap, especially in light of all the "realigning" and "recommitting" that will be occurring over the next twenty-four hours with the New Year beginning tomorrow. The numbers shared above seem to best capture my 2007 in running... and hint at what is yet to come!
