I'm not bored of running

I can spend my life thinking and planning and practicing and recovering and preparing and purchasing and waiting for the mail to arrive on this sport... I have just bought some vibrams 5 fingers, and 3 pairs of socks to go with them - everything about this sport makes me happy - the planning races, schedules, holidays or short trips for races, deciding where to do a run, ordering my first race photo, the waves or smiles or comments of other runners, and the actual running itself is great too and the feeling before and after...

I have spent the morning cooking vennison stew and while that was on i planned my WEEKLY mileage for the year - around my wedding, holidays, honeymoon and taper and recovery for my races - the projected mileage i have put down works out as 1187 miles so for the 1000+ miles in 2010 I will have a little leeway which is prob very important...

You're even more structured than me, and I can be pretty obsessive and anal about my running! Does vibrams 5 fingers have 5 finger socks too? 2010 is going to be a GREAT year for the both of us!!

That is so great that everything about the sport clicks with you. You have a BIG and fun year ahead.

Thanks I am pretty proud of my PR's, well all but the Marathon (it was a bad running day for me) but I am working on that..

Have a great day!
