Left knee, tons of damage to it. Can't even run 400m on the track across the street from me, but somehow I managed to run my first complete mile since high school on the treadmill this morning. 10:02. Fastest in school was in the 11 minute range. Maybe I can strengthen the knee to the point I can run on pavement.

4:23:45 for my first marathon. Was shooting for 4. I'll take it.

Nice work

Finished my first 5k today. 26:40 I think, not as fast as I wanted, but having to maneuver around people was a killer. A lot of fun though! I may do another one sometime.

Good work Nerd

I've run a marathon before. Trying to reach a goal on this race. It's a 20 mile trail run but it's extremely difficult. Last year it took me 5 hrs. I want to break 4.5 hrs this year. Figure the best way to do it is approach it like a marathon.

I've done a trail half. Those ain't no joke. Good luck

It's always racing season

It's always racing season

This is true, but I generally take the summer (golf) and fall (football on Sat's) off. No fear though, I will have a mileage base built back soon! :rock:

Another 3 miles.

Total - 8 miles

Perfect late evening hill run. pink and blue sky with a silver dollar moon. Gentle breeze rocking the woods to sleep until all is silent except for the sound of leaves crunching underfoot. 4 miles.

Total - 12 miles
