I ran 6 miles!

Saturday, I was up in Northern Ohio and decided to take a long run. I ran six miles I was sooooo fired up at the end.....I got an awsome runners high I took off for the run like a race horse coming out of the starting gate I did my first mile in 8:10......but each mile I got slower. The wind and hilly terrain did not help. I finished in 57:05. I am going to do some interval training to get faster. I also need to do a better job pacing myself. I went to the gym tonight and nailed a chest, back and shoulder workout. Lots of super sets and negatives. I am going to be sore tomorrow. In fact, I may need to take two days off. I ran on the treadmill for 2 miles after my weight training. I AM IN THE ZONE

wow John....that's so awesome!!!! i'll just keep telling myself..."someday soon, someday soon". Keep up the great work!!! Tami~

Thanks Tami, that someday will be sooner than you think. Have faith

Fantastic John!! That just rules!! Congrats

Thanks Stayce, You and Dana will be jogging on the beach before your know it......You will be in your two peice bating suit and Dana will be in his Speedo

Hahahaha... I just read that after I ate breakfast.. NOT GOOD! Speedo...lmao. All men in speedos = eww!! Me in a bikini - Could that be really possible someday? Not sure if that is a realistic expectation. What a nice dream though. I'd be thrilled to just wear a normal t-shirt without having to stretch it out over my knees so it fits properly over my belly and tush everytime before I go into the gym. Heck.. I'd be happy to be back in the gym in anything at this point!!!! Hopefully my surgeon clears me for basic stuff today.

...And I ran, I ran so far away... ...couldn't get away..... (Flock of Seagulls) AWESOME DUDE!!!!!!!! You go John. I love getting that endorphine rush! I had a good one Saturday when I was working out. Ain't nothin' like it. I bet you will be a little sore...my knees are kinda touchy today. DAMN THIS 40 YEAR OLD STUFF!!!

Nothing in this world like an endorphine high....well there is somthing like it....but I wont go there

I gotcha!! I agree completely!

WOW!!!! Send some of that momentum my way! You're truly an inspiration. Jennifer
