MileageGoal Met!

Thanks for all the well wishes on making it to 1,000 miles!  A couple more runs and I have now met my 2010 mileage goal:  1,010 miles!  Yippy Skippy!!

in my driveway waiting for my garmin to connect

This morning I was all alone in the house, exe pt Maddie, who never leaves without us.  Bugs had been home the last couple days with a fever, so today was the first day I was alone in a while.  Of course I had a run on the "schedule" for today.  I headed out in the nice 27F with a north breeze.  I went out and did a comfortable 2.4 miles and then stopped home to pick Maddie up.  She finished the last 1.2 miles with me.  Talk about a happy girl.  During my run I hit my goal.

I was running from this direction to my goal

Here I stand at the spot where garmin "chimed" the magical number (1.9 mi) needed to make my 2010 mileage 1,010

goal accomplished...now to keep on running

I did it!

I also learned that as much as the blue coat kept the wind from going through me, I cannot wear it when running very often.  When I got home and I took the coat off the inside was covered in moisture (a.k.a. sweat) and the outside was dry so it isn't a good running coat.
