76,769 yards swimming, 968 miles cycling, 2020 mile running.

2 marathons (each a new PR).

1 sprint distance triathlon (3rd in age group.)

1 Ironman.

Another 365 days of running to add to my streak.

Looking back, I have to be happy with (and grateful for) my accomplishments this year. It was a year of pushing myself further with a new goal (2017 miles in the year), and pushing myself harder for new personal records in the marathon (4:35:40 — beating my previous time by 24 minutes).  I even was able to finish another Ironman along the way. And, to top it off, I continued my running streak, making for 2 years of running daily, at least a mile. 

I’m not sure what 2018 holds. I have set new goals and will face new challenges. I hope to run/bike/swim and wander in some new places, see new things, and experience new adventures. I hope to meet new friends along the way. And, I hope to share parts of my journey here.

Welcome 2018.
