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.....Rain all day today and I did not feel like dealing with the boredom of a 10 mile steady pace run on the tread mill, so I ran 6 repeats of 1 mile each @ 7.30 minute pace, then 6 repeats of .50 miles @ 6.50 minute pace with about 1 minute rest in between repeats and .25 mile cool down.....total distance of 10 .35 miles. Strength training at the gym......back.

Outside run.....conditions.....39 F cloudy, and gusty winds out of the W @ 22 mph. ran 14.10 miles.....first half was with a head wind so I used that 7 miles as a strength and endurance run. Back half I had a tail wind so I did 3 repeats of 2 mile tempos concentrating on form and leg turnover. Average pace for entire run was 8.10 minutes. Strength training at the gym.....chest and shoulders.
