      Surgery??? Go slow and be careful! You'll be able to breathe better now...?

      I don't have a clue what this is, but to me anything with the s word is scary. As long as all the parts are in working order the body can be put back in shape. See you at Sandy Bottom?

    The trail is still muddy. I love having Gore-Tex trail stability shoes. I'm still doing a lot of walking intervals. I need to run thru it and break thru this mental barrier. Either way,... read more

      But, you ran 1.5 at 7:14 pace. Most people in this country can't even conceive of that. On the other hand, time to get busy. The way I look at it is if I am slower than the fastest Kenyan, then there is room for improvement. I think we all have a lot of room for improvement. Keep at it.

      Chris, my wife gave me a t-shirt two years ago that says, "I just passed your Kenyan a$$" (with ss). I was faster then. She also gave me a mug that says, "Running is good for you and your fat a$$" I think she just wanted to give gifts with the word a$$ on it.

      I have no advice to give...I don't watch my heart rate like I should. I know, bad bad!

      I have lots of advice to give. :) Leave your watch at home and just run. Don't worry about your pace, your time, your distance, or your heart rate. Run when you feel like running, walk when you feel like walking. I once read somewhere that those HR numbers were made up and there isn't a lot of evidence to support them. I don't know how true it is, but I couldn't begin to tell you my heart rate when I run and I haven't keeled over yet. Just get out there and enjoy running again. The rest will come.

      I don't do HR training either. Have you tested your resting HR? First thing in the morning, before your feet hit the floor. Maybe with age, eeehh gads, and the level or running you are currently doing, your HR might be a little higher than before but surely it should come down soon.

      The only reason I started watching my HR again was because I was starting to feel winded. I would occassionally follow HR before, but recently watch it more closely to see the connection between my HR and loss of breath. There is always that pesky over training in the anaerobic zones leading to imbalances between fast and slow twitch muscles which lead to injury that concerns me. It happened once before to me, putting my running to a full stop for several months. Trying to maintain the balance.
