Yesterday was the MCM10K (that's Marine Corps Marathon 10k - the 10k race attached to the SUPER HUGE Marine Corps Marathon in DC). I did this race last in 2015 and I beat my time by 17 minutes! Woo! Very proud of myself for that! Now I'm finished with races (aside from my weekly 5k race****il my half marathon in March. Woo!

Race week! Took a nasty fall on Saturday in the mountains, but I think the damage was limited. Good thing.
Monday-supposed to be a rest day but I think i'll try for a 4 mile shakeout this evening.
Tuesday-6 mile run
Wednesday-6 mile run
Thursday-6 mile run
Friday-4 mile run
Saturday-Deadman Peaks Trail Marathon
Sunday-Going to a concert after the marathon, so maybe nothing, but hoping for 6ish miles.

VSG: 3/12/15
Seems pretty well. There are indeed hindrances to our plans but the most important is that we learn to be flexible through it all. Good luck!
Pretty much the same every week!
Monday- Walked 6.25 miles ![]()
Tuesday- Walk 5 miles, weight training 30-45 minutes
Wednesday- Walked 7.5 miles (too wet to ride)
Thursday- Walked 7 miles, home workout (going to be giving up the gym and doing it at home starting in 2/19, so I'm starting do a day a week at home)
Friday- Walked 5.43 miles
Saturday- Walked 6.34 miles, lite workout at home
Sunday- Walked 4.4 miles, strength training for 20 minutes
My mom had a stroke this past week and I've been out of sorts fixing and getting everything together for her. Hopefully it will calm down this week and I'll feel better if I can workout a little.
Will update with actual workout completed!

Hello Everyone. So I just completed my longest run ever Sunday, 20 miles. Those last three miles were tough. It makes me nervous about the race.

Wednesday-Going to take tomm off
Thursday-taking this day off too
Friday-Swim 1 miles
Saturday-Planned rest day
Sunday-Run 13 miles- (Stopped my Garmin at 6 miles...waiting on others..Finished at 1:55:36 with a 9:38 pace)

Im actually just recently just below 200 (like 198 just below). I only run 3 days a week. My routine now is 10 on Tues and Thurs and long runs on Sunday. I turn 50 the day after my first marathon in December. On Wed and Friday I swim. lol. Keeping weight on is NEVER an issue for me. What I noticed is I have lost inches faster than I have lost weight, obviously with muscle weighing more than fat. Thats a plus. I eat so much brown rice everyday and have started taking salt tabs to try and retain water for long runs. Thats not a plus but helpful.
I run with guys in their 60s and 70s. Never think its too late. I had RNY in 2015 and I couldn't run 500 yards without stopping. I just kept plugging away. I still have to keep losing though. Im no where near where I ultimately want to be. Message me if you want and we can discuss more. Im by far no expert but I am with a very knowledgeable group.
