Weight loss is helping

I have noticed a new spring in my step since I’ve started Weight Watchers. So far I’ve lost about 7 pounds over the past three weeks. It makes me feel good and I feel like running more. The weather is getting cooler which is another reason to feel good about running.

Campus loop

P.S. Signed [...]

Time Trial

Gosh, why do I hate these dang 2-mile time trials. Maybe it is because I try too hard. I looked back to last year and I ran it in 15:13. This year I did it in 15:46. It’s so much fun getting older and slower. Oh well suck it up “old man”, and keep on [...]
