History

I started running in January of 2004 to get in shape. I had gained too much weight and felt terrible. I was able to run my first 5K 3 months later. 2 years later and 50 lbs lighter, I have continued to push for greater goals and have run 5 marathons and I am training for an Iron distance triathlon now. Everyday I wake up with a positive attitude towards life, training and my future.

Marathons Completed

Arizona RockNRoll 2007
Salt Lake City Marathon 2006
Steamboat Marathon 2005
Boulder Backroads 2005
Las Vegas Marathon 2005

Miles to Go

August 22, 2006

Up and out the door before the sun this morning. Trying to get every mile out of my training time available this week.

Back up on the bike this morning and I felt great. No pain in my back and pushing hard. Stayed low in my aero-bars and tried to push up the hills in a low position. Feeling real strong on the bike now. The weather was great ont he ride out and then I got slapped with a headwind on the way back - it did slow me down a little but not that much. I averaged 18 MPH for the ride.

Last night I made a point of stretching well. I need to be doing that every night but I don't usually get it done. I have alot of packing to do for this weekend as well, so tonight is going to be busy. CIAO
