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 I went to the gym and used the dreaded stationary bike for an hour. I HATE this thing. But, it is the safe move with my sore foot. I just don’t feel like I get any good cardio form the stupid thing. Ya, I can make my legs tired and sore, but that doesn't get my pulse up to the same level as a good run.

I had the same thing with the elliptical. Not much gets the heart rate up like running. I am hoping your foot behaves.

Ya there is nothing like running to get the pump working. I think I have the foot thing on the ropes. Thanks for the well wishes.
