Some people still think I'm crazy, some are amazed that I still have the dream, and others are challenging me, pushing me, and cheering me on..
It's been a while since I've posted on here, simply because LIFE happens. Several trips to different doctors, health concerns, busy work schedule, and a request from one doctor to lay off the exercising for awhile has basically put me off-track. I've gained approximately 6 pounds, my workout schedule is all over the map, and I sometimes wonder if I'm ever going to be able to get to a point of some consistency. I started running and doing some spinning and swimming again in September, and have maintained my weight, increased my fitness, but haven't really "pushed the limits". I've decided, even with the numb foot situation, that running affords me the best opportunity to build my "base" conditioning. It is also my worst of the 3 disciplines, so more focus now, will pay benefits later.
I ran the Trek or Treat 5k, am signed up for Louis Wechter 5k, and will probably be looking at some early 2012 5k's and target a couple 10k's by early May.. I'm not concerned with speed, but my next big goal is to be able to run 5 miles without walking by the end of February.. Speed will come later.
Keep following the progress, and I promise to blog more often.... :)
Dave
