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.

| Outside conditions........17 F, sunny, and winds out of the NW @ 11 mph. Ran 25.20 miles in a time of 3 hours, 37 minutes......average pace of 8.37 minutes. First 3 miles and last 3 miles were snow covered and slippery in areas.....made for a tough section to run. Overall, legs felt fine, except the last 3 miles were I felt fatigued overall. Used three packets of Roctane Gu which seems to really help out. Good endurance run overall.

| Outside conditions......28 F, mostly sunny, and winds out of the S @ 12 mph. Ran 12 miles at a comfortable pace which was faster than yesterdays, which is really motivating to me. I really feel an increase in speed because of the increase in weekly mileage. Total time of 1 hour, 32 minutes........average pace of 7.40 minutes. Strength training at the gym......back and core.

Outside conditions......Sunny, 15 F.....feels like 0 F, and winds out of the NE @ 19 mph. Ran 10.10 miles...it was painfully cold today, especially on the back 5 miles into the wind. Had to stop at a store at 8 miles to warm up....and my water bottles in my hydration belt were frozen! Felt good anyway to run in the fresh cold air. Happy with this weeks running ...... 70 miles total, and 272.00 miles for the month.
Strength training at the gym.....arms and core.
