Running Summary January 2025

These are the miles I’ve logged since I started running again on November 2, 2024. I am trying to not train too hard and to increase my miles slowly but steadily. I have succeeded in running 39 times in the past 13 weeks without injury.

I had stopped running after August 24, 2024 because of a sore right Achilles tendon. After a little more than two months without running, I started running again on November 2. I am trying to increase my miles slowly but steadily without injuring myself.

I ran the 4-mile Gobble, Gobble, Gobble race on Thursday, November 28 (Thanksgiving Day) at a good pace except that I was slow going up hills. Running went well in December.

I deliberately ran very little the week of January 13 since I needed a rest week. Unfortunately, I ran very little following week of January 20 because of snow, ice, and cold weather. I am back on track this week.

I have steadily increased my long run each week to 10 miles. I plan to continue increasing my long run one mile each week in February to 14 miles on the last weekend of the month.
