11 down and 1 to go!!!!

I had a great feeling as I went for my daily run this afternoon. It was a bit chilly but the sun was shining. I wanted to run at least 5km today but due to the amount of everything I had to accomplish, I opted for my 1 km.

I am thrilled to say that I have now run every day for 11 months....... that would be 334 days in a row since January 1st!!!   I remember back in the beginning of the year how excited I was just to get through the first month of January.  I had an injury at the time that I took on this challenge of run a minimum of 1 km a day, every day for a year and wasn't too sure I would make it. Now here I am!!!  Out of the 334 days, I am very proud to say that only around 15 of the days were done inside on a treadmill.  The rest were all outside....regardless of where I was, what the weather was, or how I was feeling. My most beautiful runs of course I would have to say was when I was in Alaska in August. One could not have more beautiful scenery while out for a run (minus the thought of running into any bears of course) I took this photo while out for an early morning run.

I look forward to the next 31 days. I hope to make my run on December 31 something special.....but that will depend on the day I guess.
I intend to continue running every day for 2012.  It is no longer a task as it was for the first few months of the year. It is now just a part of my every day living.
