January Recap
Total Miles: 120 Miles

This month consisted of nothing really special running wise for me. Somehow I fought off the temptation not to run and went outside to get something in. I feel like I am a repeating record when I say that I am burned out, but I feel like this month helped me get my feet wet and somewhat back into the swing of things. However, the last week in January I only got 2 days of running in because my feet issues flared up again. I have taken steps in correcting it and hopefully it will do some good and get me out on the trail more often.

I have been doing a lot of reading on plant based diet and nutrition and am greatly enjoying learning about the topic. I have invested in a Vitamix blender and can say that I am in love with the thing. I have just started to add more greens to my diet (Kale and Spinach) that was basically non existent before. It is too early to tell how much better I am feel because I have basically just started adding greens on a larger scale. Hopefully next months recap or just some random blog I can touch light on it.

Also, I have a race in mind that I am looking at training for. This excites me greatly because I haven't ran a race since October (StumpJump) and I wasn't even in shape for that. It's a 50K that I am looking at and will have more details on the race later.
