Personal:

I was born in Moscow, Russia in '68, where I started running sprint events in '83. I moved to the US (NYC area) in '91 and didn't run again till '96 when I discovered road racing scene. I was hooked after my first 5K race. I had another break in running from '01-'04 and decided to seriously get back into it in August of '05. I'm married and have 16 year old daughter. I have moved to London in August '06, will probably stay here for a few years.

Today it was simply too hot, must be 75F. First, we get no spring, then we get middle of summer! I attempted 7 miler, but again was stopped by stomach issues. Maybe I'll try again tomorrow. Hopefully, it'll will be a little cooler, too.

Total time: 38:59 (9:03 pace).

I understand. I simply can't run in on the warm side. I'm not looking forward to the summer as far as running goes. You are getting fast again. Hopefully you are feeling well.
