Goodbye 2007!!

Hello 2008!!

Happy New Year!

My final 2007 Workout Summary is:

  • Running Mileage - 958.7 Miles for 103 hours 54 minutes and 31 seconds or 4 days, 7 hours!
  • Biking Mileage - 117 Miles for 8 hours 3 minutes and 56 seconds over 18 workouts
  • Swimming Mileage - .5 mile for 3 workouts
  • Elliptical Time - I spent 12 hours and 20 minutes on the elliptical over 29 times
  • Rowing Time - I rowed for a total of 40 minutes over 3 workouts
  • Stair Climber - I used the Stair Climber 2x’s for 15 total minutes.

My 2008 Workout Goals are:

  • 5K - sub 18:00
  • 10K - sub 40:00
  • Half-Marathon - sub 1:30
  • Marathon - 3:10 (Boston Qualifying)
  • I’d also like to increase my swimming and biking mileage.

All my workouts are tracked at Running Ahead. I didn’t start using it until the middle of the year but went and back-filled 2007 data so some of the stuff from earlier in the year may be a little off!

Yesterday’s Workout

I did a nice 30 minutes on the bike to end 2007. I did the endurance program which basically is a long slow uphill for 15 minutes and then a long slow downhill for 15 minutes. The middle couple of minutes really hurt and raise the heartrate. It was a good way to end the year!

    Great.. I look forward to seeing you on there! They are a little lofty goals, but I’ve been close in the past on the shorter ones so we’ll see what happens :)

    Thanks for stopping by my blog! It looks like you have quite a head start on me and I hope your 2008 will be greater than 2007!

    I’ll be checking back in to see your progress!
