I kept a table of my race results over the year, and the laziness in me thinks it's the easiest way to share my results. I pray that you all reading this have healthy, happy, speedy 2016s!
My highlights were:
- No injuries that required time off (see my this post for how I conquered PF with no time off)
- PR half marathon - 1:24:33
- PR full marathon - 3:01:45
- Garmin PR 10K (unofficial, but it made me happy) - 38:05
- Overall female at the Bass Pro Marathon (with my husband, daughter, mother, and father watching)
- 2nd overall female at the Dallas Marathon
- Meeting an awesome training partner who pushes me on long runs and who shares my Christian faith
- Sharing most events with my husband and daughter, and seeing them compete sometimes
- Winning my local running club's Runner of the Year competition
 |
| Runner of the Year award & $$ at the OMRR banquet |
- Contracting cryptoporiduim after tubing and swimming in Table Rock over the summer. It took me about 8 weeks to re-gain full running strength after that!
- DNFing a half marathon when I had crypto (should have DNSed, but you know).
- Missing a sub-3:00 in Dallas
- Every 5K I ran, except the second 5Ks of my 10Ks which were always faster than my open 5Ks!
