Well I'm 2 weeks away from my annual Goal Race. A Trail Half Marathon. Since December I'm down 15 pounds, and I'm getting in plenty of midweek runs in addition to our long runs. I finished a 20K in December on one run a week. I don't recommend that....

Good luck to you 2Rocky! I'm sure your analogy of training above your talent will improve you, no question.

Took a day off today, trying to get better about listening to my body when it's sore. Will be running tomorrow morning and then lifting on Friday. Should be a good workout week.

Monday - orange theory workout, tues off, today - one heck of a kick ass circuit with Superbands, bosu ball, and a medicine ball. Amazing what you can do with a little knowledge! Who needs a gym......

been doing a body beast workout for last several weeks mixed with as much cardio as my knees will allow. really sucks cuz I used be a big runner, I love trail running but training for a marathon years back really screwed up my knees. always had good shoes too. tried running 6 last night and I did it but am paying for it now. time to get knees scoped I think, ugh!
