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 run........Partly sunny, 80 F and winds out of the W @ 8 mph. Humidity @ 74 % to make it feel like 99 F It was one of those days.....did not feel like running today at all and I left when the temperature was too high with high humidity. Ran 10.10 miles at a MP of 7.20 minutes per mile in a total time of 1 hr, 14 minutes. Glad to have gotten this run in anyway and happy to have done a MP in this heat. I guess what does not kill me will make me stronger!!

Morning......Outside run.....Sunny, 75 F and winds out of the E @ 4 mph. Humidity @ 57 %. Ran 16.50 miles at a MP of 7.16 minutes per mile. Felt very comfortable, especially considering the humidity was so much less than yesterday....still warm though. Total time of run was 2 hours. Mid-Afternoon......Outside run.....Sunny, 80 F and winds out of the SW @ 8 mph. Humidity @ 51 % makes it feel like 90 F. Ran 10.10 miles for a double run at a recovery pace. I left my watch at home so as to not worry about time....just a slow recovery run....heat did not feel so bad as the humidity is low.

Outside run......Cloudy, 80 F and winds gusting out of the S @ 17 mph. Humidity @ 79 % makes it feel like 100 F. Ran 16.50 miles at a recovery pace of 8.18 minutes per mile...total time of 2 hrs, 17 minutes. Tough run.....heat and humidity was a factor and strong gusty winds. When I left for the run it looked like rain and I was hoping for that to cool things off, but no such luck!. Legs are tired.... I ran almost 70 miles in 4 days and 43 of those miles in the last 2 days.....might take tomorrow off...I'll see how the legs feel tomorrow.

| Taking today off.....legs feel a lot better today, but really noticing an increase in my resting heart rate....maybe a sign that I need a little more rest this week....will run a medium-long tomorrow. |
