'06 in Review: Running

So it's the time of the year to review our accomplishments... seeing that I faithfully kept my running log this year (although it's not that big of an accomplishment as most of the data is downloaded automatically) I have more stats that you can shake a stick at.  Here are some of the more relevant stats:

• Total number of runs: 176
  
• Total Distance: 1173.5 miles (monthly breakdown illustrated in chart)
  
• Total Time: 171:31:35
  
• Total Calories: 129006
  
• Average Distance/run: 6.7 miles
  
• Average Time/run: 58:23
  
• Average Pace: 8:46 mins/mile
  

I did manage to set a few PRs as well:

• Half-Marathon - 1:37:38 @ the Seaside Half-Marathon
  
• 18 Miles - 2:23:35 @ the Draggin Tail 18 Mile Challenge
  
• 5K - 20:30 @ the local Turkey Trot
  

More useless info:

• 38% my mileage was accomplished on Tuesdays and Fridays (not surprising as these were my long run days).
• I ran most often on Tuesdays.
  
• More than half of my mileage was run in the morning.
• Most of my mileage (~60%) was run in 45 min to 1.5 hr chunks.
  
• About a third of my running was done at work (which I found pretty low).

Not bad but I really do not have anything to compare these stats with (apart from my PRs).  This is the first year that I did a good job of recording all of my runs as I decided to go digital to make it easier (i.e. GPS upload to a s/w based running log).  At least now I have a good baseline and can set some SMART goals for '07.
