2020 goal met: 1000 miles running

Somewhere midsummer, I felt like I needed to set a goal for something. I looked at my running stats for the year, which had been trending up since the beginning of the pandemic, and it looked doable to hit 1000 miles for the year. I told myself, “that’s less than three miles per day!” It seemed achievable in a healthy way without breaking any hips or anything.

I’m proud to say that I hit my goal on December 18th with an easy lap around the hike and bike trail:

Stats for the 1000 miles: 216 runs. 147 hours. 2.8 miles / day. Average speed 6.8 mph or 8:49 min/mi.

What I’m most proud of is that I had no injuries all year. Here’s to many more injury-free years of running to come!

These are two of more than a dozen video messages Annie sent me from upstairs on Duo. Really covers a range.

Leslie had the ingenious idea to install swings in the space left when we removed our shed

lol yep gallery is still a thing

For some reason I haven’t abandoned gallery.overt.org, even though I have been using Google Photos to do most of our photo management for at least three years.

Please, enjoy copies of the Google Photos shared albums for the second half of 2019 on gallery, for old times’ sake.
