137.54 miles run, which is my 2nd highest month of all-time. That’s with feeling crappy a few days in there. Not bad!<br/><br/>56.6 miles biked, which is my 3rd highest month of all-time. Not sure how this happened, but I won’t complain. I think it might be that I actually cross-trained on days I had scheduled for it in my running plan.<br/><br/>No swimming. I really need to work on that. With the pools opening soon, I’ll be out there a lot.<br/><br/>I didn’t lose any weight, but I am 10lbs lighter than this time last year. My loss usually comes once it gets hot. I also ate like garbage this month… Caitlin went to England twice and always comes back with delicious candy that I can’t pass up.<br/><br/>I only ran a single race, the Burke Lake 12k. It was a nasty day, but I managed to run 49:18 (6:36 pace) for a 2:25 PR over a race of the same distance the month before.<br/><br/>Most notably, I did a lot of track work this month and my speed really improved. In 400 repeats I not only increased in quantity, but I dropped from an average of 91 seconds to 86. 800 and 1000 repeats I didn’t have a baseline for, but they were similar to “86” performance. Finally, 1600 repeats dropped from 6:30ish in January to 6:05ish a couple weeks back. I can’t wait to use the speed in my next 5k!<br/><br/><a href=”http://www.cherryblossom.org/” target=”_blank”>Cherry Blossom 10 Miler</a> this weekend, <a href=”http://www.crystalcity.org/eventdetail.asp?IdEvent=469″ target=”_blank”>5K Fridays</a> on April 17th and 24th, <a href=”http://www.dcroadrunners.org/calendar.html?task=view_detail&amp;agid=33&amp;year=2009&amp;month=5&amp;day=2&amp;catids=23%7C24%7C25″ target=”_blank”>Arlington Science Focus 5K</a> on May 2nd, <a href=”http://www.bikenewyork.org/rides/fbbt/index.html” target=”_blank”>Five Boro Bike Tour</a> the day after, <a href=”http://www.westfieldhs.org/5krace/” target=”_blank”>Westfield 5K</a> the weekend after that, <a href=”http://www.marinecorpshistorichalf.com/site7.aspx” target=”_blank”>Marine Corps Historic Half</a> the weekend after that, and then only two more races before the <a href=”http://www.runsfm.com/” target=”_blank”>San Fran Marathon</a>, which I’m supposed to be training for all the while.
