After work I set out for my final run of November: an easy 5 miler. It was in the high 40s, low 50s with almost no wind, so I took advantage of wearing my awesome capris and a long sleeve shirt. The entire run I had Red Jumpsuit Apparatus--You're My Angel running through my head. I may or may not have had the song on repeat for the last couple of hours of work. Sue me! The run was pretty uneventful.... 5 miles in 46:47 for a pace of 9:22.

I always get excited on the last day of the month to look at my running totals. Unfortunately, because I took 1/3 of the month off, my numbers were a bit low. The big bummer is, prior to being injured, this should've been my highest mileage month eva. :( Oh well. There's always another month!
Total Miles: 80.1, which is down from 115.1 from last month.
Miles Biked: 87.72
Time spent: 12:21:07.
Total Runs: 12 for an average of 6.75/run.
Highest weekly mileage: 11/23/2009-11/28/2009: 30.1 Mi/4:43:43
Favorite run: My first run back after taking 10 days off. It was just an easy run, but I was just sooo happy that I had no foot pain during it. :)
Most hardcore run: 8 x 800 m. @ 7:18 pace. I missed speed work the most when I was hurt, so this run was hard but oh so rewarding.
Favorite Race: Technically it wasn't a race, but I didn't race in November. So we'll go with my mock half marathon. I hadn't planned on even trying for a PR in Dallas, but after this, I'm definitely going for it.
