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..... ran a long run of 26 miles at an easy pace of 7.53 minutes per mile...total time of 3 hrs, 25 minutes. The humidity started to get to me around the 18 mile point. I was thinking on running a 10K race today, but opted not too...thinking it was too soon after my injury last week....maybe a long endurance run was too much also, but I felt quiet good ..except for the humidity. Afternoon......35 km. bike ride....storm brewing, but such a nice stillness to the air....really enjoyed this bike ride, and kind of happy I didn't get caught in a storm!

| Outside run......Pouring rain, 68 F and winds out of the NE @ 7 mph. Ran 14.25 miles in a time of 1 hr, 48 minutes.....average pace of 7.35 minutes. Rain through the entire run. Interesting to note the strange look I get from people passing by in their vehicles seeing me running in the rain. |

Outside run.....Mostly sunny, 69 F and winds out of the E @ 6 mph. Ran 10.10 miles in a time of 1 hr, 14 minutes....average pace of 7.20 minutes. Felt quite good, but it was one of those runs were I felt like I was going faster than I acually did. Maybe the legs are a bit tired from the mileage the last two days, but they felt ok during this run......just one of those days!! Afternoon......35 km. bike ride.

| Outside run......Partly sunny, 71 F and winds out of the E @ 6 mph. High humidity @ 83 % makes it feel like 84 F. Ran 14.25 miles at an easy pace of 7.31 minutes per mile....total time of 1 hr, 47 minutes. It was not that warm out but the humidity made it feel like such. Legs felt fresh.
