Six months have passed since I set my goals.  It’s time to take a look and see how I’ve done:

• lower my 5K PR – B – I lowered it from 29:30 to 29:21 to 28:42 – hope to go lower
• run a 5k under 29 minutes – B – one race at 28:42 – hope to have more
• win my age group at least once – C – I came in 2nd & got a medal for Metroland 5k but there were only 19 racers, came in 2nd for Literacy 5k but 4th in10 yr groups, game in 2nd for Valley Cats 5K & got a cap
• run new races – A – So far I have run 6 new ones with a few more planned
• run on the treadmill all winter (3x week) – A – I joined a gym & ran all winter (at least 3x a week)
• run a longer distance on the treadmill (more than 2.75 mi) – A – I ran 5K most of the time and even ran a 10K
• motivate some of my friends to run – Fail – but I ran with a new runners group
• increase the distance of my training runs (more than 3mi) at least once a week – A – I run 3.5 miles often and have run 4 or 5 mile on occasion
• run at least 15 races – I – I have run 9 so far but most of my races are to come
• run a 5k in another state (preferably Fla next fall) – Fail – this may not be possible this year
• take more running pics – A – I have taken lots of photos (even learned to use the timer on my camera) & post on this blog & on facebook
• keep track of how many miles I run this year – A – I record every mile I run on this blog, dailymile.com & on a tickerfactory.com ticker

Happy Running!
