And I'm back!  :)  I have been running all this time, just not typing it in, I promise!  After the marathon I kind of got a little off track, and haven't been training as hard as I wanted to.  I had wanted to stay in pretty good shape, but the longest run I've done since June has been 6 miles.  Oops.  I decided to train for the Seattle half marathon in late November though - am shooting for under 2 hours.  So I think I'm back!

Not feeling very good today either, I hate it when you have those bad workout days!  3 miles running, 4 miles walking with the dog (he wasn't too happy).
