Thanks for the kind thoughts. Cancer is a tough row to hoe, but I have a good shot at getting rid of it, and that makes me feel very fortunate, compared to many others I see at the treatment center. I can still run for now, and hopefully will continue to be able to run through the weeks of radiation starting next week. I don't have big expectations for the first half of 2015, but I hope to make up somewhat for lost time during the second half. It will be the following year, 2016, before I have any real hope to get back to "normal", or close to it.
Retired & Loving It
Improve my race times and run a shit-ton of miles.
+1
1) Get healthy again after 5 months of reduced training due to achilles problems.
2) Train consistently and stay within myself, something I've not always done well in the past.
3) Concentrate on 5 and 10ks early in the season to get some speed back.
4) Fall marathon under 3:10.
Full Stride Running
I do have 3 specific 2015 goals set ( specific plans still ruminating inside my brain. 2014 not over yet).
injury free/work on health
keep 100 mpm streak going . Will hit 100mpm next few days for 65th consecutive month. July 2009
1500-2000 miles
I agree, +1.
Try and run 365 days... Try and do some "streaks" of 5+ miles a day for several days... Try and set some new PR's as well... But yep, overall, do alot more in 2015 than I did in 2014, and have fun while running a shit ton of miles.

+1. That's my plan too! If I get better at it, that's a bonus!
Run consistently throughout the year and improve my squat weight.
How to run faster & Longer
-Keep enjoying running
-Try going more than 50k
Run 42.195 km each and every week.
Run The Buffalo Marathon in May and The Maine Marathon in October.
BQ in May at Flying Pig, and possibly sub 3 but not setting my sights on that particularly
Stay under 150lb
Focus on shorter races after that to set some nice PRs and get into the local competitive running group
Consistently Slow
Pistol 100 - January 3---- 27:46:58
Be in 1st 50 to reach 2000 miles - Swampers
Strength train- bench press my weight (160 lbs)
Run until the trail runs out.
SCHEDULE 2016--
The pain that hurts the worse is the imagined pain. One of the most difficult arts of racing is learning to ignore the imagined pain and just live with the present pain (which is always bearable.) - Jeff
