Well I have not posted in a while, so I figure it was a good time for an update. Not much terribly new or interesting to report--I continue to run three days and week and lift weights one day. I am definitely getting faster, although I seem to be much slower outdoors (7:20-7:30/mile pace) then on the treadmill (low 7:00/mile pace). I am usually faster on the treadmill, but the difference is not so stark. I attribute it to not running outside very much, but I am not terribly bothered by it (especially given the fact I am not actually training for anything). Oh, and I am thin--I have consistently been in the low- to mid-170s for a while now. I attribute it to my new diet--a sensible breakfast, still kind of a big lunch (with my one sweet for the day), and a light dinner. God I hope I can stay this light through my 2012 marathon--I cannot imagine how fast I will be able to run if I am a good 5-10 lbs lighter than I have ever been for 26.2 miles! One last thing--I miss riding my bike :(
