It's Monday! And it's the beginning of December! How goes your running?

Have you made any plans for next year yet? Races to run, goals to strive for?

My plan is to start running consistently again after a terrible season of stress, sickness, and sprained ankle. It will take a while to rebuild my base so I'm not expecting any PRs any time soon (and hoping I'm not over the hill age-wise). Mostly, I'll be keeping up the triathlon habit, because I spent a lot of time swimming when I couldn't run this year, and have finally gotten comfortable doing it.

Over the hill, age-wise? BWAH!!! No such thing, darling! I know I'm faster now than I've ever been (or I was, ten weeks ago, and I know I'll get back there soon.) Tons of empathy for you on the stress, sickness & injury woes, though. It can be daunting to come back to training after a setback, I know it well. YOU CAN DO THIS!!

You don't have to expect the PRs. I'll just keep writing down my secret and almost always very accurate predictions for you. But remember, no matter how old you are, I'm older and look what I can do! I've gotten much faster in the last 2 years so if that's predictive, then next year you should be having your fastest year ever :-)

I just set a half marathon PR in October at age 50, and I'm expecting (well, hoping!) to break my marathon PR this Sunday. So let's not hear any of this "over the hill" garbage, missy!
