Looking Back: December & January & February
And earlier you lot know it, poof, a calendar month has already gone by! And then, poof, another! I accept been actually slacking on posting, but I accept been reading your updates when I instruct a chance; I am only non actually commenting every bit much anymore. Here, inward brusk form, is a summary of my yesteryear few months.
December quickie: In Dec I ran 164 miles to convey my 2017 total to 2,505 for the year, which got me to my 2,400 mile goal. I climbed 29,800 ft, which also bagged me my 450k climbing destination for the year. I read half dozen books, for a total of 94 books. My favorite for Dec was The Alice Network, which I talked well-nigh inward my Best of 2017 book post. I traveled habitation for the holidays.
Running: In Jan I ran 204 miles too climbed 28,900 ft. In Feb I ran 210 miles too climbed 23,300 ft. This yr I accept lowered approximately of my goals a bit, every bit I accept approximately to a greater extent than of import things on the agenda, but I would nevertheless similar to pause the 2,000 mile / 400,000 ft climbing goal. I appear to endure on rail thus far.
Lately a typical running calendar week is iii or 4 runs: a brusk trail run during the week, ane session of road/speed go during the week, a "long" trail on the weekend too sometimes a ane time a calendar week grab upwards route run amongst a friend who is grooming for her start total running one-half marathon (she has done a one-half earlier but walked a lot of it). This seems to endure a skillful variation piece nevertheless putting inward plenty miles but spending less fourth dimension than if I did all trail runs. I nevertheless fighting to honour a residual at times (and slumber is frequently the loser), but it'll instruct there!
Reading: In January, I started half dozen books too seat iii of them downwards correct away, for a internet total of iii books. I accept started to endure ameliorate well-nigh ditching books that don't grab my involvement earlier I instruct to the halfway point. This time, I fifty-fifty ditched a dyad inward the start dyad of chapters! In February, I had a ameliorate month, too read 4 books (no rejects!) which were all pretty good. My destination this yr is ane majority per week, or 52 books. So far, I am a piffling fleck behind, but I volition probable grab upwards inward August too September, when I to a greater extent than frequently than non accept most of my opor-garai time.
Some of my favorites from the yesteryear 2 months were:
Beartown yesteryear Fredrik Backman (****)
Pachinko yesteryear Min Jin Lee (****)
Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 Gentleman inward Moscow yesteryear Amor Towles (****)
We Were the Lucky Ones yesteryear Georgia Hunter (*****)
Travel: You know that buzzer audio when you lot instruct an response incorrect on Family Feud? That pretty much sums upwards my move for the yesteryear 2 months. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 big fatty BEEEEEEP. Nothing. Okay, thus non totally nothing, I guess, but mostly local. I went to Auburn for a prissy hike amongst the identify unit of measurement too I spent a fun game nighttime at a friend's house, but I accept slept inward my ain bed every unmarried nighttime thus far this year. After spending virtually no Saturdays inward my ain bed from August - Nov of final year, it feels a piffling strange. Plus I accept to launder the sheets to a greater extent than frequently now.
Well, that's the final iii months inward a nutshell! Before I go, I desire to plough over a quick cry out to my friend Lisa, who likewise my Mom (hi Mom!) is ane of the few people who reads this. After what I would tell was a hard pregnancy, she late had a babe boy! Congrats Lisa!
