2009 was a good year overall. Here's just some of the stats. I started running at the beginning of June. It was pretty hot, and I remember struggling to finish 2 and 3 mile runs. It's funny because a mere two months later and I was warming up with one and two miles before the actual running began. I totaled 528 miles for the year. 5.5 weeks of training were lost due to injury. My longest run was 13.1 miles, which I did twice. I did not run any races.
I think I'm getting pretty close to running again. My right heel feels normal. My left heel is around 90% now. Hopefully, I'll be ready to go in another one to two weeks. I have decided to get the New Balance ultra arch support insoles to go with the NB 1225 shoes. I am looking forward to getting these items and really hope that they solve my feet problems. Based on the preliminary re-start to my training program in a couple of weeks, The Sun run 10k is in jeopardy because I would only have around two weeks to get ready for it. I am optimistic...cautiously...for 2010.

About Me
- Frank
- I have rediscovered my passion for running. I plan on racing all distances from 5k to marathons in 2010 and 2011. My goals are to first run a marathon in under 4 hours, and then to qualify for Boston--I'll need to run 3:20 or faster. After qualifying for and running the Boston Marathon, I would like to try a 50 mile ultra race. Of course, to accomplish any of these goals, I must find a way to keep my 40 year old body injury free. I will post about my runs and anything that I deem to be interesting.
