April 2009 certainly went out with a whimper. Didn’t do anything the last few days due to a bad head cold. I also lost a week in the middle of the month due to vacation, so this was a very light month.
Running – 32 miles over 5 runs – I had such a great start to the year in terms of run miles, but the last 2 months were on the low side. In fact, At 257 miles, I’m only 13 miles ahead of last year’s pace – considering I’ve already run a marathon this year, I thought I’d be further ahead. From another perspective though, I’ve already outrun 2003, where I only totaled 123 miles the entire year. My biggest Jan-Apr output was 2005, when I ran Big Sur. That year I covered 298 miles through April, although tailed off considerably and only ran another 307 miles over the last 8 months of the year. Anyway, with the Brooklyn Half Marathon at the end of the month, should have a higher number this time.
