Three days in and it is time to look back, reflect, learn, gather, stack, and look at all phases (thank you Jason Garrett). Here are the momments of 2011 to build on. Letterman Coutdown Style:
5. Turkey Trot 5K 22:33. A personal record and I stopped halfway to help a fellow runner who fell along the way and had lost their good puppy-dog. Goal: Get under 22 minutes!
4. 1135.74 Miles. It was a "Grand" Year, but did not wear me out like a grand year. Goal: More Miles! More Strength Training! Stay Healthy!
3. First Half Marathon 1:54:56. Rock and Roll Dallas Half in March was the first "long run" of my running life. I knew very little about this great sport and lifestyle then. I am actually learning something each week that will help this old man get faster and more fit in 2012. Goal: get under 1:50 by 2012 RnRDallas!
2. First Marathon 3:58:20. Dallas White Rock was amazing and my hope is that all future marathons continue this trend. Goal: 3:55 at Big D Marathon April 15th.
1. Huntsville 5K 35:25. First 5K with and for my daughter Jessica! Great course on the campus of Sam Houston State University with plenty of hills. Jessica did great and we plan on doing this one again in October 2012. Goal: Keep running with Jessica!
Fun to look back and learn and build. Better to look ahead and plan and dream.
