Hey all just joined the group. Long story short... I'm a long time runner who had a long time off. Been back at it for a couple two or three years now and am working on shedding my excess fat to get lean and boost my running times. I call this my adult running career and I know I will never see times like I had back in HS and college. In my first career I was pretty fast so now I'm looking to recapture some of my former glory so to speak. Really I want to just be the best I can be right now and continually strive to better myself.

Currently I'm doing a lot of trail running in preparation for the Huff 50k in December.

See you around!

    Welcome fellow runner! A 19 minute 5k would be quite the accomplishment it you ask me! I am 13 years older and enjoying my adult running career immensely! Feel free to friend me if you would like to stay in contact - I log every day (almost anyway) and run a lot as it is my go to exercise. - Stay healthy; run strong! - Doug
