Wow, what a year it has been! To recap, here are some highlights of my favorite moments from 2014 (remember how much I love numbers and stats!):

Athletes to End Alzheimer’s team on marathon morning

Running – this has certainly been a fulfilling year for running endeavors with many awesome memories with my running family.

—13 completed races in distances ranging from 1-mile to marathon.

—Personal records set in all distances raced.

—1,285 total miles run – that’s roughly equal to the distance from here to Kansas City 0r to Orlando and half-way back, and almost half-way to London floating in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

—More than doubled the total distance I ran in 2012, and almost 200 more miles than last year. Man, I was such a slacker back then!

—208 hours spent running – that’s more than 30 minutes a day every day for the year. What a waste of time, huh?!?

—Ran in 8 different states and 5 countries, either on a treadmill or outdoors.

—Over 50 hours spent at Local Barre and another 50+ hours spent swimming, spinning, or some other form of cross training.

—Wrote my 100th post on cindyruns.com. Thank you for being my audience 🙂

—Meeting and spending time with some amazing friends along the way.

—Raising over $1,750 for the Alzheimer’s Association, NYC Chapter.

Chicago Marathon – done!

Traveling – I love traveling, near and far, and I am so lucky that we were able to spend so much of our time whether for business or pleasure in so many new and old places this year.

—Domestic: Orlando, FL; Hartford, CT; Pittsburgh, PA; Indianapolis, IN; Chicago, IL; Philadelphia, PA; Bridgehampton, NY; Atlanta, GA

—International: Abu Dhabi, UAE; Bangalore, India; Mustique, St. Vincent and the Grenadines; Dubrovnik, Croatia; Baska Voda, Croatia; Split, Croatia

—Sampling food, running, and enjoying the company of friends and family in these locations – priceless.

Our year would not be as wonderful if it weren’t for all the time spent with our family and friends. Thank you for a great 2014. I am looking forward to an amazing 2015!

Have a happy and healthy new year to everyone!
