Richmond Marathon - 2009

Being a sucker for a bargain...I just signed up to run the Richmond Marathon next year. "Sign up before the end of December and get this special price". That shows great optimism on my part. Not only that I can run 26.2 miles, but that my arthritic toe will hold up.

It's really been hurting lately, as has my knee and hip. I knew the new orthotic would cause other issues, but I didn't anticipate being in this much discomfort. I'm feeling a bit old this last month. I need to "get over it". (A phrase from my mother).

Body Shaping

In the illustrious words of Patty - "It's easy to lose it once you quit using it!" Ain't that the truth. I did weights this morning, and let me tell you...A couple of years ago, I would have snickered at someone like me! I was lifting 8 and 5 lb weights. And shaking in the locker room after! What the hell?!

Just another area to work on...
