Hello all, I figured I better come out of lurk land and say hey to all of you. I have been logging with RunningAhead since June of '07, but didn't really know about the forums till recently. I posted on the Before and Now thread http://www.runningahead.com/forums/post/2465f811e6874451a4c4beffb653992d because of the weight I have lost over the past year, but that was it so far. I started running for the first time in over 20 years last year when I started losing the weight. I am currently training for my first half marathon and was wondering if I could get any feedback on the training I have been doing getting ready for this race. Thanks! Tim

Belated welcome and glad to see you out of lurk land, Tim. Check out the Half Marathon Trainers group - lots of folks there in your shoes.

When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

Thanks! Hopefully I can hang around a bit more. I don't have much input to offer since I am quite new to running, but I will hopefully be able to help out here and there. Tim

Hey, Tim! Nice to have you on forum board! I started out kinda the same, I logged all my runs on here, but wasn't aware of how cool the forums and groups were and now... let's just say DW thinks I have a bit of an obsession. Big grin

I have been accused of having somewhat of a running obsession as well, but I am OK with that. When I find something I enjoy it absolutely consumes me, and that is what has happened with running. I used to run when I was in high school, and now I wonder why I stopped.... because I loved it back then too!
