Somehow I pulled myself out of bed at 5:15 am and went running. Did 8.5 miles on the treadmill in 68 minutes. I am still quite sore but getting better. Hopefully tomorrow it will be close to normal. Might try to do a run tonight.

These long runs have been helping my weight. I was 166.4 today. So I have officially lost 20 lbs since the beginning of the year. I love being lighter and trimmer.

Great job on the weight lose. I'm just not losing it this year, like in years past. I guess I've lost 12 pounds since Christmas, but still heavier than I should be.

Way to go Steve!

20 pounds- awesome- I think the ultralight runners should have to run with an extra 30 pounds of weights strapped to their bodies to equalize things for the rest of us and keep things fair!

Glad the soreness is leaving, you have been working hard! And congrats on the weight loss!

Thanks, everyone! You are all very kind. Dustin, I bet you'll lose a few pounds over the next couple of weeks.
