Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to accomplish my short term goals first... Once I do that, I will have an idea of what to expect long term... 44 yrs old now and since I've been injured free for 1 month I am jumping back on marathon training. Any recommendations for a good marathon in December 2021? What is your recommendation?

Personal:

Don't knock it until you try it.

Don't worry Missy I'm gonna shut her down by wednesday tomorrow calls for a tempo run and the rest will be split into 2 runs to get some kind of taper going into the race.

U are Crazy Inspiring Benny...I think if I can get to some sort of performance weight I could run faster..I'm thinking 125#'s is doable..at 5'7". The tricky part is maintaining my muscle at the same time..so it needs to be done gradually. I'd go under 125 too if it didn't leave me looking wasted away..lol. Kick butt this weekend..Sending you more Powerful Crazy speedy vibes! :D
