| Well, on the 29th, I finally did it. I broke the 200k mark for June. For me that is the boundary between complete and humiliating failure and the garden variety mediocrity that defines me recent running career. Still, I'll take it. There is something about seeing the two in the front of the monthly total that makes me feel much better about my running month overall.
So how did I go from 200 miles last month, to just barely breaking 200 klicks this month? I haven't run a single run of 15 klicks or more. There were a lot of hot humid days, and the week of pink eye and antibiotics did not help.
Still, mainly, I think I lost the momentum. Missed some days I shouldn't have. Didn't capitalize on some running opportunities as well as I could have. In other words, I drifted.
About to end this month, and July will be starting soon enough. If I want to run the Chicago Ultra in October, there still is plenty of time. Just need to get the train back on the tracks. |
