Better get the weight loss update out of the way. Slow steady progress. Running going ok, and generally have more energy. Runs are now between 3-5 miles, averaging a little under 8:30/mile. All runs since the trip to Sarasota have been on the roads, no treadmill. The only "problem" is that all possible runs from my house generally involve signicant "hillage." Great for cardiovascular conditioning, tough on any speed gain desires. Of course, I really don't care about speed anymore. Just get in shape and stay uninjured!
