1 Spartan sprint
1 non-official race ten mile hike
PR’s (both set during the Turkey Trot)

Other Highs:
Reading Deena Kastor’s “Let your mind run”
Reading Brad Hudson’s “Run Faster”
Discovering a love for trail running!!
One 1st Place, and 5 Second Place age group awards
Coming in 21st of 604 ladies in my AG at the Turkey Trot
A few Lows:
Spent the first half of the year (or more?) feeling sorry for myself that I wasn’t “fast” like last year. Note to self: Comparison is the thief of joy!
Plenty of GI distress in the spring.
You know what? I can’t think of any other low’s off the top of my head. Just some race performances that felt “meh” but I’m over it now, and stronger/wiser about it now.
In all, not my best year, but I do have renewed hope that my best times are still ahead of me. Looking forward to seeing what 2019 has in store!
