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.

Rest day.....after 7 weeks of high mileage, I decided to make this a recovery week...about 3-4 runs with a maximum of 50-60 miles. I'm beginning to feel mentally and physical tired, so I am going to listen to my body and use this week to recoop....I want to get in a very productive year of running.. needless to say....no desire for an injury!
