Today I passed a huge milestone that I've been looking forward to for a while.. my first double digit run!! 10.1 miles at a 9:15 pace in the rain to be exact!! To make it even sweeter, today's run put me at 100.1 miles for the month of February which is almost half the miles I ran in all of 2008! I wish someone could have taken a picture of the ridiculous smile on my face for the last mile.. I'm sure it made some passing cars wonder what in the world was wrong with me!

De-slacking in progress
started running @ age 48 [lost 70#+, quit a 30 year pack/day habit>> ran HM] Ran a few years then quit. Gained 70#+ back and smoking like before. Time to get healthy again @ 52 years over with the C25K program and beyond again. RE-start date 1-13-14

Champions are made when no one is watching
Not to hijack the thread or anything but I also reached 100km in a month for the first time and am pretty stoked about it. I realize you ran 100 miles which is like 160km but I will enjoy my small victory.
On the road again...
I write. I read. I run. One time, I ran a lot on my 50th birthday.
