December 2024 Summary and 2024 Year End Recap

 December - 96 km

YTD          - 1390.6 km 

2024 total Ks logged ….

1390.6 km 

Now that was a pretty light running total.   Volume has been dropping over the past few years mostly because the furthest I  strive for now is 50 km.     I did however log 1 50K Ultra,  Niagara and 2 Marathons ,  Endur and Run the Edge.    I more of less expect 2025 to be similar to 2024 concentrating more on local events.  I am already signed on for the 50K at Mansfield and the 42.2 at Beaver Valley and will pick up some shorter local events throughout the season.

Monday

 5K lunch run ,  mostly 7:30 pace however I through in 1/2 at a 6:00 pace and it felt ridiculously fast. 

Better

 Had a laid back day ,  sleeping a little more and taking it somewhat easy.   I was able to get a run in on my meal break this evening logging a 5K @ 7:30 pace.  

Not what I planned

  3K walk , intended on a Run but my lower back suddenly went into spasm while I was standing talking to a co worker.   I hurt myself skiing last Friday and have a compression injury to my right rib cage.    Its painful to sneeze / cough / blow my nose and sleeping is a bit painful.    My lower back pain probably has something to do with my compression injury.    I may have to lay low for a few days before I can run again ... will try tomorrow eve. 

Tired after skiing.

 It was a powder day ....I am tired.   Logged a 3K walk on my meal  break this eve.
