    I'm going to run a half marathon on March 30 next year. I have run marathons and ultra marathons and all kinds of races for over 30 years but I was always 20-40 lbs heavier than I am now. My weight lifting routines are much more advanced compared to over 30 years of weight lifting as well, not heavier, just more exercises, more variety, more changing up. I've noticed two things have improved my running performance 1) losing the fat, 2) the weight lifting leg routines. So my goal for the half marathon is to hopefully prove I can beat my PR from my 30-40's (while in my 50's), and prove that you can lift heavy and still be a good runner. And the owner of the race is going to have me come up at talk about it to the crowd. I'm pretty excited. It will be the Marin County Half Marathon in CA. I'm super excited and motivated.

    mine was to walk 5km in less then 50mins.

    then to walk 6km under 60 mins

    Now it is to walk 7km you guessed it in less then 70mins

    until I get to 10 km under 100mins

    and then work on cutting time down more and more until im doing a jog not just a walk.
