Short-Term Running Goals:

I've been a very active runner since High School ( I usually run 5-6 days a week) but I have yet to run a Marathon or any other competitive race since then. I want to get back into competitive running and hopefully have similar results like in High School. Although, last January 09 I got shin splints really bad and it took a good 6 months of rest and rehab to finally get back in the groove. I would like to run a sub 8 minute mile on my first Marathon but maybe I should just worry about finishing it first?   

Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to qualify for the Boston Marathon.

Personal:

I'm 42 years old and I'm married! I enjoy the outdoors (Hunting, Camping, Backpacking)

Overall time: 30:10. First run in about a month and a half. I felt ok for the most part. Towards the end I was definitely sucking in air. I think riding the bike at the gym for that month off kept me in decent shape. Hopefully the weather will stay good and I can continue to get back in shape. I did notice my ITB band was acting up a bit in my right leg. I thought for sure a month off would of healed it. Does anybody know if riding a stationary bike would cause issues with the ITB band? I'm even still doing exercises and stretches for it.
