Level Green!

By Colleen @colleenalicia · On January 27, 2012

After going on a run today, I came home and checked my Nike+ account, and Paul Rodriguez popped up on the screen and told me that I had graduated from level orange to level green!  This is great news – it means that I have officially run over 155 miles while carrying my iPhone.  This is a pretty big deal, because I’ve never been a fan of carrying things while I run, but now I know that I can achieve the goal of running-while-holding-things if the thing is something that tracks my miles and turns running into statistics.

The run that pushed me from orange to green was down and back up Terwilliger, from A-Boy, and added 7 miles to my week.  I’m not doing the best job of making it to 30 miles a week, but if I can somehow manage to get 19 more in the next two days, I’ll be back on track!

The only other miles I’ve done this week are from a track meet, Tuesday Night at the Races.  I blogged all about that on the Run Oregon blog, so if you want to know about that then you should read it there.

If you’re only still reading my blog because you want to see more of my puppy, here’s a video of him this morning when he was super-hungry for breakfast:

Miles run in 2012: 80

I must confess, I started running at a very early age. Sadly, my runs were unblogumented until around age 23, so you'll have to use your imagination for all the runs I went on before that. Running has always been my go-to sport, but sadly, I spend a good amount of my time with chronic injuries. I have learned to entertain myself athletically with other pursuits such as kettlebell, yoga, and bikini competitions, when I can't run. In addition to my unique talent for working out and then blogging about it, I am an amateur puppy stylist and photographer, television enthusiast, and I'm usually CPR/AED certified, but I would still prefer if you didn't pass out when we're together.

About Me

I’m Colleen. I started this blog when I was 23 years old and training for my first marathon. I was single, semi-employed, generally directionless in life, and had a lot of free time on my hands. I have a lot less free time now, but I still love to come here and dump my rambling, unedited thoughts after a workout or race once in a while.
