YE14 Wrap @ 1974 Miles.

After finishing the Berlin Marathon, I didn't have much else to accomplish for the year. I enjoyed the downtime after cramming for the marathon.

I rounded out 2014 with 1974 miles. It was my lightest year since keeping this blog, but I also basically only ran for 9 months of the year.

After getting back from Europe, I did have a slight knee injury that kept me from wanting to push any significant running so I tossed aside any near term goals or the prospect of returning to Boston in 2015. The knee was basically mild bursitis (again). I experienced it about 10 years ago, and for some reason it came back. It eventually cleared up within a few months. Any training or racing following Berlin were merely maintenance miles or just keeping myself from falling completely apart for the balance of the year.

Berlin Marathon 2014 goes on as my crowning achievement in 2014.

I entered 2015 with sights set on the spring CARA Circuit and some yet-to-be-determined fall marathon.
