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.
easy run in Regents Park, time 35:59 (8:33 pace). Then did 4x100m strides. Still didn't feel all that great on the run, although strides felt good. 10K race tomorrow.

Sasha, the 10K didn't go at all. I set my new mobile phone's alarm clock and then woke up next morning 1.5 hours after it was supposed to go off, so the race was gone. I realized later that the time format on my mobile was set in 24 hour scheme rather than 12, so my alarm was 12 hours off! Oh well, live and learn. I'm trying for another 10K on october 8. Hope my alarm is going to work this time, and I can get to the race in time. I have to go on National Rail for the first time in London, so I'm a bit nervous about finding everything ok.
