After two plus decades of being a racer-turned-recreational distance runner, 2024 forced me to reevaluate that title and ditch the "distance" adjective. Blessed to have suffered no injuries or maladies, at 61 I have begun to notice that Humidity is my Kryptonite! Fortunately, there are three seasons a year in NYC when that isn't an issue and a treadmill in our air conditioned gym when it is.
Even so, adding shorter, more frequent runs (a revelation I began to employ last year) to my routine resulted in mileage numbers I haven't seen since I was in the thick of my marathon'ing in the old days. This year was one of my highest, ever! I am always astounded by how effective it can be to mix things up!
In addition to my jaunts around NYC parks, I had some memorable runs in the Hamptons, Pennsylvania, Maryland and DC as well. I wish you a new year full of good health and interesting travels, whatever your sport!
