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.

Very nice day for a run....set out to do a 12 mile run, but the weather was so nice, I kept going...felt very mild muscle pain from injury, but last 2 miles were severe, but I had to finish. 20.50 miles....I think my time was about 2 hours, 50 minutes, but I didn't keep a close watch on time, my goal was just to go out and run some easy miles today after 4 day rest.
