Oh Hai June – May 2017 End of Month Stuff

So May is over.

I ran two races (the Little King’s Mile and the Flying Pig Half).

I registered for three races – the Flying Pig FULL 2018 (I did this at the Expo, so I have a ton of time to question my choices… but hey, free T-shirt!), the Honor Run Half (in November), and the Bulldog Blast (local 5k).

Appropriate for that last one – it was <$17 after credit card processing fees:

“I’m not going to race during the summer” / “Oh look! A cheap 5k!”

Mileages:
Goal: 92
Ran: 83

Missed runs include a few where I was sick, in fact, the 9 miles belong almost solely to a day where I was very sick (possible food poisoning) and the following day.  Ends (e.g. running 3.14 to get back to where I was and having a goal of 3) not only reduced the amount missed, it made up for the first day back, where I wanted to run 8, but couldn’t stomach more than about 6.

Other than that, still no injuries! The addition of a lot of milk and vitamin D pills has helped!

ALSO: my weight has been hovering between just-below and just-above 200 pounds.  If I could stop eating like a fast-moving dumpster, I could probably cut my weight down more.

Next Up:
Nothing in June is planned.  In July, the NKU XC series is coming, as is the Bulldog Blast

Cheers!
