2010. Hard to believe that another year has come to pass and what a year it was. Back in March, I completed my first 1/2 marathon and in April, completed my first full marathon.
This year is it. The year I turn the big 4-0. Thinking back over the past 10 years it has been quite a change in my life. 10 years ago I had just quit smoking a little over a month prior, and though I might have thought of myself as 'in shape' (mostly because of the smoking keeping my weight down), it certainly wasn't true.
So, this year Sarah and I have started off my running in the local New Years Day 5K. My past couple of 5K times have not been that impressive, mostly because of being lax in my training since June. This morning I tipped the scale at 202 (I was around 185 when I ran in Nashville in April). So I have my work cut out for me for the first part of the year.
On a plus side, I did finish with a gun time of 27:15, which was my best 5K time since February.
So here's to hopefully a great year for all, to a better finish time in March for the Knoxville Half Marathon and in April for Nashville.
