February 2008 Masters Miles

Mustang Sally · Feb 25, 2008

<img alt="" src="http://www.imagesfromhere.com/archives/Running%20Dog.jpg" style="border:0px solid;"> Because it's a terrible thing to lose one's miles... This is (a slightly early edition) of the February Masters' Miles thread. This is where we, every month, post the total number of miles run or walked for the month. Shortly after monthend, your faithful tallykeeper will total the numbers, run some mind-bending statistical analysis (courtesy the Analysis Took-Pak in Excel) and post some awards. 
If you have a PR, brag on it! 
Because I'll be rather occupied as the month rolls over, I won't be back to crunch the numbers until March 3, so you will have plenty of time to get your data in. I'd appreciate it if someone bumps the thread from time to time while I'm away. Late entries will be included in the total data as I catch them, but I won't adjust the prizes. 
Here's a refresher of <a href="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/showpost.php?p=571556&postcount=64" target="_blank">January's results</a>: 7,852.06 miles, 55 reporting Mostest Miles: alan fletcher, 315 miles Awesome Average: Dirt the other white meat, 142.4 miles Median Midpacker: Paul, who landed one notch down the list from Dirt, 140.4 miles

105.4 miles for February 
(I realized I was overtraining -- 28 straight days without a complete rest day, ramping up the biking and swimming -- so I had to cut back on the running to avoid exhaustion. Smart move! I ran well in Arizona.)

52.7 miles for February, which is just slightly below my average monthly mileage for the previous 5 months. All considered (weather, minor injuries, vacation), not a bad month. March is always my highest mileage month. I may even approach.....mediocrity!

ksrunr · Feb 27, 2008

190 Feb. miles.

rochrunner · Feb 27, 2008

Normally I wouldn't even post this, but my total is: 1 (O-N-E) mile! <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif"> 
That's right: One as in uno, eins, ichi, yksi, unum, ...

SLOjim · Feb 28, 2008

With a 7 tomorrow and a 14 miler on Friday, will hit 164 miles ..... the biggest month in over a year<img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"> 
Edited to say I got in my 7 and 14 miler for a Feb. total of 164 miles and YTD 316.4

Johnny · Feb 28, 2008

So Roch doesn't feel too bad <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"> 
Feb Miles: 0.5 
YTD 89.9 miles 
A bunch of XT though

irunmike · Feb 28, 2008

Ok, since tomorrow is a scheduled rest day for me, we can close the book on Feb: 
182.7 miles on 2 continents! <img alt="surprised.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/surprised.gif"> 
YTD: 359.3

Tamster · Feb 28, 2008

I'm resting today and will be running 4 miles tomorrow, so I will have a total of: 102 miles for February. 
YTD: 192 miles 
Not a PR in monthly mileage and no PR's for racing this month either.

goofyguy1958 · Feb 28, 2008

This is my first post in a while (stress fractures do that to a person) and I can't believe it but I actually have more miles than someone (rochrunner has 1) with my 3.3 <img alt="sad2.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad2.gif"><img alt="sad2.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad2.gif"><img alt="sad2.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad2.gif">.

alan fletcher · Feb 28, 2008

I don't think I'll be "mostest miles" this month.... Took 6 days off to avert (hopefully) an achilles problem I was starting to feel. 
Assuming tomorrow goes as planned, I'll be 198 for the month. it is my biggest February every, but I know that doesn't really count as a PR <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"> 
Did have one race, which was a new PR for the half marathon (1:27:25)

Still on the slow road back to normal mileage... 83.25 miles. A couple more miles than last month. <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

jura · Feb 29, 2008

Un, egy, um... I have been there not too long ago, Roch, Johnny and Goofy... It sucks, but injuries do heal up. Hang in there... 59 miles for February.

55.12 miles (per mapping websites). 
Probably my personal best month EVER! I have never built mileage this consistently - helps to have something to train for, apparently, and not partying 3-4 nights a week like I did in my 20's probably also has something to do with it. 
Although, I suppose if I had been able to add up all the miles run on an Ultimate field, maybe 55 miles wouldn't be such a big deal.
