BODY:
A month hardly deserves its own review, especially
when it contains no
Running on the Road
reports. But after so many months off and on, and
a November/December stretch of downtown that killed
the momentum gained from
running my sixth marathon,
I am happy simply to have a month of running to
report. Five consecutive weeks of increasing mileage,
with steady 27-29 mile weeks the last three. The
cold snap last week drove me inside for lap running,
which means faster miles and more fatigue. Fortunately,
they have not led to a return of the symptoms behind
my months off and on.
My goal for February is steady running; my hope is
to increase my mileage slowly but steadily into the
mid-30s, where I like to be in the winter. My next
big trip is planned for
SIGCSE 2010
in Milwaukee, which has a river and a riverwalk. I
love to explore new cities on foot.
