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.
8 miles in North Logan. Nice day to run, legs felt pretty hammered. Nice easy run.

Rob,
Hi. Hope you and your family are doing well and hoping also that your work schedule is getting a little lighter. I refreshed my memory and checked out your accomplishments and goals again. Love that you write you're not that fast...to me it is incredibly fast! Don't take this the wrong way - you are so close to a 2:59 Marathon time! Looks like your best marathon time is 3:05. Not sure if 2:59 is a goal for you but would be AWESOME!!! Myself (don't laugh now): Marathon PR 3:54 and goal is 3:30.
