Still Running…
Writen by: Hank WethingtonPosted on 31 March 2011
I’ve been asked a few times if I’m still running or training as I’m not posting much running info. The answer is YES! For those of you on Facebook who follow me, you’ve often seen my “view from the run” pictures. For those who have come to hankandheather.com and don’t get to see all the fun training I’m still doing, let me break it down a little.
In the last 13 months of running:
- 242.2 Miles
- 42663 KCal
- 49 Hours 3 min
I’ve recently added biking to the mix over the last 2 months:
- 108 Miles
- 7100 KCal
- 7 Hours 35 min
These numbers don’t include basketball (2-3x/week) or swimming, tennis and even soccer (or a month off for an injury). The frustrating part, is while I’ve lost some weight, I’m not seeing the results I would expect with this kind of activity. I do look better and feel better, so that is always a great thing.
As to what I’m training for? The number 1 thing is to live. However, there are a few things on the schedule this year:
- Chains of Love 5k (completed)
- SLO Health and Fitness Expo 5k (completed)
- Miracle Miles for Kids 10k (May 7th)
- Strawberry Stampede 5k (May 29th)
- SLO Triathlon (July 24th)
- City to Sea 1/2 Marathon (Oct 9th)
- Warrior Dash 5k (Oct 29th)
So it’s looking to be a busy year. If you’re in town for one of the events let me know and we’ll have fun together!
I’m always open to questions, so feel free to ask.
