Major Milestone today!

This was a good week in terms of training. I am now back under 195 and today Monika and I ran our first 7 mile training session. We both finished it in 1 hour 11 minutes, so we are on track with our goals.

We signed up for an additional 10k that my work is sponsoring for the Atlanta Community Food Bank on March 1, so it feels good to know we will be able to complete it (7 miles is 11.2k).

I'm hoping to get under 190 by next week, which is a huge milestone for me... been trying to get back to that weight since 2000. My original goal was 185, but i think i'll go for 180 and have 185 as my limit

Heading towards our half marathon

Just a quick update - i am still training for the ING half marathon at the end of March. Up to 6 mile runs now and have dropped 15 pounds since the beginning of the year! I am running on a treadmill due to the weather, so GPS stats won't be back up until next month when it warms back up.
