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.

| Tread Mill......ran 6.25 miles alternating .25 mile repeats of speed and inclines. Varied the inclines from 5.5% to 7.0% and varied the speed repeats from 7 minute pace to 6.40 minute pace........good workout and helps to break the boredom of running on the tread mill. Suppose to rain the next couple of days, so I might have to run indoors......sure love those trail runs around here! Strength training at the gym.....chest, back and abs. |
