April 2009 running mileage

Stats for the month

Days run: 21
Miles run: 156.98
Total time: 20 hours, 22 minutes, 19 seconds
Pace: 7:47 minutes/mile

Here are my last five Aprils

Year..........Miles..............Time.............Pace
2009..........156.98.........20:22:19.........7:47
2008..........110.58.........15:54:18..........8:37
2007............93.97..........14:27:06..........9:13
2006............71.85..........10:07:12...........8:27
2005............94.4............14:57:36..........9:30

It's fun to put my miles down for each of the last five Aprils and see my progress. If history means anything, my average April in 2010 will be in the 6s. But, as they say in the stock market, past performance does not guarantee the future.

April 2009 is the second consecutive month where I have averaged a sub 8:00-mile pace for the month, and the fastest month I've ever had. No doubt, running two 5Ks in under 20 minutes and last weekend's sub 1:40 half marathon are big reasons why my average for the month is so fast.

I've got one more planned race for the foreseeable future: A 10K Saturday morning. And then, I'll concentrate on building my base back up, run more miles a little slower than I'm running them now.

Forgive me for my ignorance, but how do you keep track of your miles and times? Is it all logged on your Forerunner (or whatever product) or do you use some app online or what? I'm trying to find the easiest way of tracking my stats. Thanks and keep up the good work.
