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.

| Rain all day today so I planned a recovery run on the tread mill. Ran the first 7 miles at an easy pace of 8.34 minutes, then felt a surge of energy, so I did a 3 mile tempo @ 6.50 minute pace....felt really good, but was not part of my plan. Strength training at the gym.....arms and core.

| One of those rare days that I cannot run because I had to tend to family matters all day. Just the way it goes! The rest will only benefit me, I know. |

| Morning......outside conditions.....Sunny, 39 F, and winds out of the S @ 4 mph. Ran 8.10 miles at a faster than marathon pace of 7.25 minutes. Total time of 1 hour. Afternoon....strength training at the gym....shoulders. outside conditions......44 F, sunny, and winds out of the S @ 6 mph. Ran a second run today of 8.10 miles....meant to be a recovery run, but ran a pace of 7.46 minutes....total time of 1 hour, 3 minutes. I wasn't sure how I would feel doing a double run, as I never did this before and my first run was at 11 am this morning and this second run was at 2.30 pm this afternoon.....only a couple hour gap between, but I felt very strong. Nice week overall.
