Running Accomplishments:

I have lost 90 pounds. This more than any thing else is my greatest accomplishment. After my collegiate running career I sadly stopped running and kept eating all the way to 265 pounds. After a lot of soul-searching and even more running I am now 175, the same weight I was in college. 

Short-Term Running Goals:

Keep running. I simply run for greater health. I enjoy the struggle for self improvement. 

Long-Term Running Goals:

I would like to amass enough race t-shirts to make blankets for every bed in the house, as well as finally run a marathon. (Oct 15th SoJo Marathon)

Today my legs feel so sore and heavy, and I love it. The important part is that they do not hurt, I don't have any pain. I was nervous that jumping form 60 to 82 mile over one week was asking for an injury. I just did the Mexican hat dance all over the 10% increase rule. I feel like I just blew through a proverbial speed trap going 82 in a 65 zone and getaway with it!
