993

That's the number of miles I ran last year and both the good news and the bad news for my 2016 running.  Had I known where I stood in the final week I would have upped my game in Asia and crossed the line at 1000 just like I used to cross the line of 2000 billable hours a year in mid to late December while in private practice.

On the other hand, this is about 50% more than I did in my injured and rehab year of 2015.  More important, form and breathing are better and knee pain is way down.  Did 2 half marathons in decent times without incident and with joy.  Averaging my usual low 9s for the daily plod but my sprints are well under 8 and occasionally under 7 without too much huffing and puffing.

Congrats to Phil who more than doubled up on me mileage and here's to a new year with 1000 mile goals and an Antitrust Marathon to look forward to.

My running New Year's resolution wasn't a streak but a trainer.  Had my first session this morning.  #restorethecore Hope to run with everyone at least once along the way.
