January 2011 Running Recap

Yes, I know this is seriously late—late to the point of why even bother. Yet, for some reason, I am going to bother, if only so that I have it for later.

As you may or may not recall, December was a trying month, with a stomach bug that made the rounds early in the month, and IT band/knee issues in the middle of the month. You might also recall that while the IT band/knee issue eventually got better, I was no longer comfortable continuing to train for a marathon, when I might be teetering on the brink of injury, so I switched my registration from the Cowtown Marathon to the Cowtown Half Marathon.

So now that I’ve jarred your memory, let’s talk about January.

Here are the stats:

  • Total Miles: 176.2
  • Total Time: 27:31:14
  • Average Pace: 9:23/mile

Additional Notes

I ran 18 out of 31 days during the month. Doesn’t seem like much, does it? However, I obviously ran a lot, as the 176.2 total miles indicate. Three of my long runs were 16 miles each. I also did the longest tempo run I’ve ever attempted—8 miles at tempo pace, plus warm up and warm down. That was a tough run! I also added in some hills, working on both uphill and downhill running. Here are the number of times I did each type of run, as well as the shortest and longest run in the month:

  • Easy: 7
  • Tempo: 2
  • Intervals: 2
  • Hills: 2
  • Long: 5
  • Shortest Run: 3 miles
  • Longest Run: 16 miles (3x)

January marked the 4th time I’ve gone over 170 miles, and the 176.2 total miles is the second most for one month. January is also the 18th consecutive month of running 100+ miles, and the 6th straight over 150 miles.

Next up: February 2011 Running Recap, which includes the Cowtown Half Marathon…
