Year to date I have logged 1063 miles. I haven't lost any weight and didn't plan to lose any. The best part of running is the pounds I haven't gained. So far this year I have burned off 30 pounds that I would have gained had I not ran assuming I consumed the same quantity of food. I think statistics like that are awesome.

That is a good way of looking at it. I've logged close to 600 miles and lost 30 pounds. It will be nice when I can get to the point that you are at and say that by running, I have kept XX amount of fat off my body.

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

Each mile grants me a glorious tablespoon of peanut butter and change. That's how I look at it :P

A tablespoon of peanut butter and change?

That's particularly crunchy.
