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.

My old favorite 6 mile out and back at lunch. Nice jog. 7:30/mile AP.

Picked up Conner last night at around midnight coming home from Footlocker in California. Finally got to sleep about 2:00, and woke up at 5:30ish. I've not been getting that much sleep lately. Reminds me of the good ol' Army basic training days back in 1986. Time to work on getting more sleep :-).

6 miles out and back in the cold rain at noon. This was one of those runs where you think you are going real slow (estimated about 7:45/mile), but ended up at 7:12/mile AP. Fun run in the rain.
