Title: 2000 (Thank You FRB)
Post by: Jeff Linger on December 06, 2008, 10:30:29 am
So I ran my 2000th mile of the year this week. I owe this all to FRB for the encouragement, advice, and community. 18 months ago I couldn't run 3 miles without having to stop in the middle and walk for a bit. Now this year I've run 2000 miles, ran my first marathon, qualified for Boston, dropped over 5:30 off my 1/2 marathon time to dip below the 1:25:00 mark and hope to crack 3 hours in April at Boston.

Thanks FRBers!

Congrats, Jeff.  You did all the work.  We are just happy to see you succeed. 

Any idea what your goals will be for next year?
