I don’t just read books and attempt to write them. I also run. Not especially well or fast. But I do run. I have been doing so since at least 2002. Rather late in life to take up such exercise, but not too late. I have run every year since and kept a record of my efforts. 2010 marks a new personal best. I track total minutes running rather than distance. In 2010 I surpassed my previous best year, 2004, by 8.6 %.
Here are how the years rank. I won’t bother sharing the total minutes because those might not reflect terribly well upon me.
- 2010
- 2004
- 2006
- 2003
- 2008
- 2009
- 2002
- 2005
- 2007
2007 was an injury plagued year. Here’s hoping that 2011 will be injury free and full of good runs.
May your 2011 be filled with many wonderful runs! I now have 23 years of running logs that have become the journals of my life. I’m so glad I found your website. I won’t pretend to understand all of it, but I’m enjoying reading your articles….okay, and I’m so proud of how smart my brother is! Keep on writing Randy….and running…
