Ran first marathon after 18 months of training (minus injury time) at age 52 in Logan, Utah on Sept 18, 2010.  Time was 4:16:56 compared to a goal of 4:15.

Second marathon was Oct 1, 2011 in the heat of St George.  Time fell to 4:52:27.

With two marathons behind me, my next goal is to run one in under 4 hours and potentially qualify for Boston within 2 years.

My primary physical goal is to live a long, healthy life and to stay active to the end.  While I can, I expect running to be a big part of that.

I ran two miles in about 18 minutes this morning to see how I would do.  It turns out my back hurt more than my foot.  I may be on my way "back".

Trying to be careful until I can build up my mileage again.  Just ran 4.66 miles in 38:28 (8:15 per mile)  All body parts seemed to be in good working order.  I hate to let all this great running weather get past me.  It may have been a little cool at 45 degrees for short sleeves and shorts, but very tolerable.  It's just going to get warmer from here (I think).
