1/2 year - Looking back


Half of the year is done!  Of course it never plays out the way you think it will.  I cannot complain.  I logged exactly 80 miles per week (with one mistake week at 81) and raced a bunch.
 
I didn't run the times I'd hoped for, but weather was a factor a few times and my fitness was a factor a few others!  My main goal was the USA mountain running championships and I was thrilled to pick up an individual Gold Medal (along with a couple of team Golds).  So far I've scored points in each of the road GP races (#3 race was cancelled due to snow) and hope to keep that rolling in the 2nd half.  The Mountain series 50+ title is one of my goals for the year and it is going to be a tight battle.  I look forward to racing Jim Boule (aR) and teammates Ed Sheldon and Erik Vandendries.  It should come down to the final race.
