January: Started training for the Rockin K trail marathon. We had a mix of ice, snow, and nice as usual. We also had our first Canicross meet up and I spent a ton of time on the mill.
February: February brought a quick trip to TN to celebrate the life of my dear Aunt Babs. It also brought lots of snow/ice and some running at my mom's indoor gym track.
March: March brought milder weather and spring break in Tennessee. Lots of pavement running for us but some new to us trails and some new to us friends!
April: Our second marathon together, the Rockin K. What an adventure this race was. Ruts, sand, dirt, beaver dams, water crossings, and dead animals all completed our first attempt at Rockin K.
May: May brought spring pacing duties. Paced the 2:30 group for the Bill Snyder race and the 2:45 group for Running With the Cows.
June: Summer running brings fall PRs in distance or speed! I really think changing to 4 minute run:1 minute walk really helped me get through this hot and humid summer! My 24 week training cycle began for my first 50 miler!
August: Heat, humidity, storms, yeah Kansas summers!
October: October brought pacing duties and taper time!
November: Race time! A new to us relay race at the Little Apple Marathon and my first 50!
December: Recovery time and base building for my next 50!
