Year in Review and 2018 Running Goals

When I first started running in August, I couldn’t even run a half-mile without being winded and running at a super slow pace. Five months later, I’m up to a long run of 7 miles… I’ve come a long way!

 

Completed Races

• 1-mile Verona fun run: 10:34
• Hot Chocolate 5K Chicago: 34:46

 

2018 Running Goals

• 12 in 12 in 12: Run 12 half-marathons in 12 months in 12 states in 2018
• Complete a Ragnar Relay (May 2018)

• Go back to increasing my daily protein intake
• Stretch properly and use the roller stick before and after each run
