"oh yeah... now I remember"

2 for 2 jogging today and no pain, so that is a good sign. It was one of the things that I gave up over the years either due to physical limitations or embarrassment about weight and appearance. Not all of the things I gave up were purely physical in nature. Dating, church, and participation in Scouting were also things put "to the side". It amazes me that it took a decade to remember how much I enjoyed dancing. Dave

Great job Dave I had my personal trainer to teach me how to run proper and build up long distance for 5K and 10K. It is fun and help me to relief from my stress levels after running long distance. Set up your goal for 3K this Spring. Take care Kathy K

Is there an official race somwhere? Is there a "low speed" category? Dave

Hi Dave Again, Here is website for Ct for racing http://www.hitekracing.com/calendar/ you can join for Run/Walk 5K That will be good place to start first...Good Luck Kathy K

Hey there Dave, Thats great news, congratulations to you on your success. Its an awesome feeling to accomplish things we never thought we would ever do again. You keep up the good work your doing a great job. Your my hero. Take care KimC

Next dance... name tags... Dave

Dave- You go man! I'm proud of you and all the great steps you're taking. As for me- you won't catch me running, unless there is a threat of death involved, but I'm glad you're doing stuff you enjoy again! Keep it up. Best, Lisa C

I think if there were a regular ballroom dancing program maybe once a week in the Middletown area I would try that next. One of these days I need to look into that. Dave

I think Rocky Hill has as school...maybe it's called????American Dance Academy???I picked up a flyer in the K-mart plaza in cromwell last week...I've also been thinking about taking in some dance classes....It sounds like fun, and now that I don't have that creepy embarrasing feeling about my body anymore, I would love to take up dancing again...My husband actually came up with the idea of taking ballroom dancing classes together after we finish our finance class....2 more months...I also had a great experience playing basketball last weekend, and have been thinking about maybe joining some local team...Do they have a "beginners league?" Oh well, gotta go, Love, Dorota

Hi, Dave! If I remember correctly, Adam's school runs a dance class 1 or 2 nights a week for adults. I don't remember if it's just salsa or other types of dances as well. Maybe you might want to check with him? Debby
