Oops.. 365 Day Challenge Late Update

Day 22 (April 23):15.05 miles in 1:53

Week 4: 37.26 miles in 4 hours 35 minutes and 54 seconds  (mostly all on a gimpy shin after my 15 mile run. I'm not sure if it was a shin splint or what, but a little ice, stretching and no pain no gain got me through the week)

Day 29 (April 30): 10.26 miles in 1:29 (group run)
Day 30: 2.22 miles in 15:19
Day 31: 5.02 miles in 36:17

Day 33: 4.57 miles in 29:56
Day 34: 2.15 miles in 13:09
Day 35 (May 6): 10.03 miles in 1:10 (alone long run)
Week 5: 36.39 miles in 4 hours 27 minutes (Thought I had more mileage this week but overall a pretty solid week as far as times go)

35 day total of the 365 Day Challenge: 187.79 miles in 23 hours 3 minutes and 18 seconds.

Right now, I'm at about 5.4 miles per day in 7 minutes 21 seconds per run. If I wanted to, I'd calculate that over the course of 365 days to see where I would be at if I maintained those averages.. but there are too many variables in all that to figure out.

What did I learn these 3 weeks:
-I'm not very good at blogging about this, and I need to improve
-The week where my shin hurt didn't really turn into that bad of a week; which shocked me.
-I hope I don't get any serious injuries, running through them is going to be the only way to beat them. Mental toughness needs to be there for me.
-I enjoy running with the groups because I can get bored on occasion running on my own.
