Surprised Myself!

Postby trixiee » Tue Nov 05, 2013 2:20 pm

Just checked my Garmin stats YTD. 4,634.58 km
I think I have a new goal... 56 days to get 366 more km under my belt... Please Mother Nature, be kind :-)

When your legs get tired, run with your heart.

Overcome the notion that you must be regular. It robs you of your chance to be extraordinary.

Holy crap, that would be averaging 13.7 km/day. I don't think I'm averaging that per week these days. Well done!

Way to go!
If it doesn't snow and get too cold until January 2014 you should still be able to ride. Some people ride all winter too.

Nice work!! I hope that mother nature cooperates as well :)

I run because it's my passion, and not just a sport. Every time I walk out the door, I know why I'm going where I'm going and I'm already focused on that special place where I find my peace and solitude. Running, to me, is more than just a physical exercise...it's a consistent reward for victory!

Yeah, that's pretty hard core, well done for getting out there. I thought about riding today but changed my mind, which means you get the HTFU award for today. ;)

I think I'm more impressed that you rode yesterday in that wind, but still an impressive yearly number.

good work.
