Long-Term Running Goals: I guess at this point I just want to keep running for fitness and weight control. 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. |

| I blew it by running first mile too fast and then had to slow down. I was aiming for 7:40 pace, but in reality I did 7:30, 7:46, 7:49. | | Add Comment |

| First hill workout on Summit St. hill. I was supposed to do 6x1', but was only able to do 6x50sec before my legs refused to lift anymore. Very hard. Not very encouraging, but I hope I'll get stronger gradually. As bad as I felt running repeats, by the time I finished my cooldown I was pretty well recovered. | | Add Comment |
