I really can’t belive it is the beginning of July already! Where has time gone?<\/p>\n

Highlights from last year include:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Race Reviews<\/strong> from races I ran in Indiana, including Jennifer’s Run 5K<\/a> and the Buzzards Roost 10K<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I talked about the USATF <\/strong>decision to ban headphones<\/a> at races and gave some safety tips for running with them in your ears.<\/p>\n

I shared about a recent running experience at Westwood Park<\/a> which is near New Castle, Indiana which has a really nice moutain bike trail perfect for running<\/strong>!\u00a0 Charitable running <\/strong>is a fairly important part of the sport so I highlighted some of the local opportunities for Indiana runners<\/a> to support charities and actually this year I have dedicated my first marathon to supporting World Vision’s<\/a> work around the world.<\/p>\n

I finished out the month last year talking about Mounds State Park<\/a> which was definitely my favorite place to run while living in Anderson. A huge percentage of my runs were done on the variety of hilly trails <\/strong>offered at Indiana’s smallest State Park!<\/p>\n

Jumping back to this year:<\/strong><\/p>\n

I started training for the Twin Cities Marathon<\/strong> this fall and have finished weeks 1<\/a>, 2<\/a>, 3<\/a>, and 4<\/a>!\u00a0 I ran a couple of races this month including the USATF 5000m Championship<\/a> on the track and the Karate Kickin’ Cancer 5K<\/a>. I wrote about the state track meet from Washington<\/a>, you’ll have to read it to remember why!<\/p>\n

The Brooks Running company has decided that they want your shoes to disintegrate<\/strong>; but not while you run.\u00a0 They are introducing BioMoGo<\/a>.\u00a0 Meanwhile, an article in the New York Times wrote<\/a> about research into post-run\/phyiscal activity nutrition; none of the researcher advocated sports drinks!<\/p>\n

Finally, I was tagged<\/a>, but I survived to share my running story<\/strong> with you;\u00a0 hope you enjoyed it!<\/p>\n

Monthly (Yearly) <\/em>Totals:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Running – 112 miles 588 miles<\/em><\/p>\n

Biking – 221 miles 442 miles<\/em><\/p>\n

Swimming – 0.9 miles 1.3 miles<\/em><\/p>\n
