Ran past Costco to the Lacamas Trail (3 miles) and then 2 miles out and back on the trail before returning home.

McGilvary to Cinetopia and the Fred Meyer near I-205, then back via Winco. Rip hip wasn't loving life. 

Year was up and down.  Ran a couple marathons (Phoenix and Newport).  Phoenix was fun, Newport was my best ever.  Loved every step of that race.  Took some time off after than, then changed jobs and moved so that made for some low weeks/months with regards to mileage.  Ended up about 600 miles shy of last year, but my time in New Jersey was the main reason.  Started to ramp things back up the last month or so, but not sure what 2014 entails.  I'm signed up for Seattle Rock N Roll and I can't decide about going back to Newport for a third straight year.  And I found over $180 while cleaning up the streets of GP and Vancouver so that's good I suppose.  When I started the year, I thought $25-$30 would be an achievable goal with $50 a stretch goal.  I guess carrying grocery bags while I run has helped me carry a few more...  I can't decide if I'll continue in 2014 or not, but most likely will cause I like $.

My right hip killed. Then it dawned on me that these shoes have over 1,100 miles. I think I'll toss them and see if that's the problem. Fingers crossed...

Ran through the nearby neighborhood before heading north on 164th, then looped through to Mill Plain behind Target before making my way home past Mt. View HS and the movie theater.

Around Fishers Grove South. That place is a confusing maze. 3.3 miles is better than 0 miles I guess...
