I am back with a vengeance .I feel a renewed spirit to running as I now have a purpose .I am now training for the Long Beach Half Marathon and I feel good about this.I was speaking to a co-worker the other day as she has just begun to run and is training for the Long Beach half and she asked me if I'd like to run it with her ? I said yes and another co-worker stated "Why on earth do you want to do that? You're too old" I was taken aback by t his comment so I guess that you could say that gave me the kick in the pants to do this.I have begun my training schedule and so far not too bad.My back is still seizing up and today's run was pitiful as I took the dog out with me and she had to stop every few feet to mark her territory.But yet ,I still felt good and it feels like I am making progress.Granted I still have a long long way to go but at least I am on my way.
