About me:
Jack of many trades, master of a couple. Have had 7 or 8 career changes within engineering for the last 40 years. Retired Oct 2010. |
Why do I run:
Fitness, improve health and well being.
and because I fell in love with it and am obsessed. |
Why I started running:
I was blessed with a heart attack in the ER on 3/15/08. No prior symptoms, working out 5x/wk. Discovered that with family history I should have had extremely low cholesterol. After researching, I found that running helps raise HDL, and lower LDL and Triglycerides. So I started running July 08. Used C25K to get me started. Ran first 10K 50 weeks from heart attack, first half 18 months from the attack |
