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.

6.3 mile loop in North Logan at noon. I took the entire week off last week to let things heal up. The first mile today started off great. Left forefoot started to hurt a bit so I continued on at a slower pace. Nice cool day for a run.

Another 6.3 loop in North Logan at Noon. Forefoot still feels like I have a huge rock in my shoe when I'm landing, but it isn't hurting as bad. :-) Nice easy 7.58/mile AP. Wore a heart rate monitor -- average in the 150's. I like to keep it in the 160's, so I could tell it was easy.
