March 2010 is the first time the Twin Cities hasn’t had snow in March since 1878<\/a>. The month ended with temps in the 70’s.<\/p>\n

March barely surpassed January (18 miles) for total running mileage with a sad 19 miles for the entire month. \u00a0I can’t seem to get a break on injuries. \u00a0Who would have thought that my knee would randomly swell up? I was doing pretty well at the beginning and was going to step up the mileage. \u00a0I did get the bike out for a total of 20 miles, a quick swim, and some very easy cross-country skiing round out the month.<\/p>\n

I’ve set a few random goals for the year:<\/p>\n

Run Around All Named Bodies of Water in Minneapolis<\/p>\n

I didn’t add any new bodies of water.<\/p>\n

Read the Entire Bible in a Year<\/p>\n

This was a much better month. \u00a0It was actually fitting to finish reading Matthew during Holy Week.<\/p>\n

Read a Book a Month<\/p>\n

I finished two this month. I actually finished the\u00a0Enjoying Prayer<\/a> book that I started in February. I had started reading another book but was getting bored by it and we happened to stop in Magers & Quinn<\/a> and I got several running books including Christopher McDougall’s \u00a0Born to Run<\/a>. I finished it, so look for a book review<\/a> coming soon.<\/p>\n

Blog Regularly<\/p>\n

I only posted 3 times at my personal blog. \u00a0I posted regularly on here and that’s more important for you! \u00a0 I continue to do well on my\u00a0Project 365<\/a> (taking and posting 1 picture a day). I also started a new “hyperlocal<\/a>” news blog for my neighborhood<\/a>. \u00a0It is more of a news aggregator than a publisher of new content.<\/p>\n

Other things of note… I found out that my position at work will be funded again for next year, so that is good news. We’ve really tried to get outside as much as possible, though its been a little hard being gimpy but we had our first picnic. \u00a0Sadly, we had to cancel our first camping trip of the year due to my knee. It didn’t make sense to go camping and hiking when I couldn’t really walk normally. \u00a0So that was sad.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0most popular post for the month continues to be\u00a0Treatments of Plantar Fasciitis<\/a>! Actually, so far for 2010 this post has double the visits as any other (except for visits to my home page).<\/p>\n
