Personal:

I herniated/ruptured a disk (L4/L5) in my back in December, 2005. I told my orthopedic surgeon I wanted to start running. He said "You'll never run again.". What a challenge! So...I started running.

Since then I've lost about 50 pounds, ran 13 marathons and a number of other races.

I am still a clydesdale runner (over 200 lbs), have a large frame, big bones, and not built like a runner at all. I'm not fast. I mostly run to have some time to myself and keep in shape.

Last day of the Disney cruise. We stopped again at Castaway Key. They had another 5K race in the morning. I didn't really push it that hard at all, but took 2nd place (after Conner of course). About 50 people from the ship ran it this time. I ran it a little faster than on Saturday.

There were certificates in our cabins at the end of the day. Afterwards, we went snorkeling and enjoyed the beach with the family.

In the late afternoon I did another 8 miles on the ship. Nice and slow.
