2015 in 2015

I signed up for this in January. Despite stopping running/racing on foot and starting cycling (per my plan) on 4/19 after Leona Divide, I had covered 721 miles and 80,000' of gain including 4 ultras in as many months. Used my Garmin Fenix3 to count my steps and about a month ago passed this milestone.

Should finish the year run/walking 2500 miles in total.

5k a Day!

I am part of the 2015 in 2015 Run the Edge Challenge, while I was running through April my miles were accumulating quickly but since stepping out of my running shoes and into my cycling pair my running mileage tailed off and so I included daily steps. However I needed to bolster this with some running and to be honest I was becoming a one trick pony with just cycling miles and most likely setting myself up for an injury more than just a tweaky knee.

So with that in mind I have decided to add a 5k a Day run into my training, to be honest I have little expectation of doing it every day but if I can get 3-4 runs in a week it will help with everything.
Tomorrow is July 1st so that seems like a good time to start!
