Personal:
I am a 52 yr. old single father of four children. I am retired after injuring my back in 2000. I had back surgery, stopped running, and gained about 80 pounds. Decided to take my health into my own hands....lost 100 pounds, went to Nepal and trekked for two months in the Himalayas...climbed almost 18,000 ft.....felt so proud of myself....began running again. I qualified for Boston in Oct. 2009. I have shifted my focus now on ultra-marathons with the hope to run my first this year.

TM.....9.0 miles @ marathon pace of 8.0 minutes and .35 mile cool down. Felt a bit stiff today....will ease up tomorrow.
Still going to try and run 22 on Friday. Might do some out and backs so I can mix up the pace with you. For example run from my mom and dads and then back to the pond and then we will run around the pond at different paces so I can speed up then do an out and back easy. Food for thought? Are you up for that many miles? We can also store a few bottles around the pond etc. Hopefully its not too snowy so we can do this.
Seattle's marathon on June 27 is the first at that date. I keep checking to see how the course is set up but still no course map online. It is a rock n roll marathon. Here is the site. http://www.rnrseattle.com/
