The Decade in Review

Yesterday concluded my first long distance running decade. Prior to or shortly prior to the start of this decade, my longest run had been 6.2 miles or 10k.
My races completed this decade include 4 marathons, 2 25ks, 46 half marathons, 1 10 miler and 1 13k.
Prior to 2006, I have no idea how many miles I ran per year nor do I know how much mileage I put on my running shoes. My old shoe wear test was that if I got shin splints after a run, it was time for a new pair of shoes.
Going with the data I have, my 2006-2009 mileage is as follows:
2006 - 1146 miles
2007 - 1196 miles
2008 - 1298 miles
2009 - 1092 miles
2009 ended in a running slump for me. I'm not sure what the cause of this running funk is, but I am confident that I will work my way through it and get back running in 2010. Who knows, I may become a streaker this year!!!
