IT ALL STARTED WHEN I RAN A THOUSAND MILES IN 2013...

Month 6 Recap - Halfway point!

Yesterday marked the end of my 6th month in working towards my goal of running 1,000 miles by the end of this year! 

See recap below:




I completed 90 miles this month compared to 61 in May64 in April, 89 in March76 in February and 80 in January, for a total of 460 miles to date. The highest mileage month so far!

I made a running calendar this month, which I think really helped me to stay on track and get my mileage numbers back up to where they need to be. My time has been a little slower than usual because I've been doing mostly all treadmill runs due to the Texas heat. I'm always so much slower on the treadmill, but it's pretty much my only option. 106 degrees...no thank you!

My goal was to get 80 miles in this month so that I could get closer to the 500 miles halfway mark. Thankfully, I was able to pull out 90 and now I am "only" 40 miles behind from being on track. I can easily make those up throughout the 2nd half of this year!

Bring on July!

6/20/2013: Miles run - 460 of 1000. Miles remaining - 540 of 1000

    1. Hi there! Thanks for following :)

      I don't follow any specific diet. I just eat mainly fruits, veggies, and protein and stick to around 1200-1500 calories per day. I have lost most of my weight by running and exercising regularly and cutting back on alcohol consumption (I usually just drink wine now, no beer) and no fast food!

      Let me know if you have any questions!
