back in feb 2008 i was about 197 - 200 lbs. I was pretty soft although at the time I thought I was in great shape. I went to the gym maybe two times a week but I was not serious about it and my eating habits werent great.
I was concerned about losing mass because of too much running training for 1/2 marathon coming up. But to me it looks like I've not lost any mass really. I have not taken measurements recently so who knows. But My traps and shoulders seem to be getting bigger than they were 6 months ago. It's st ...

The week off from running really made a huge difference. My pace sped up quite a lot. My knee is 100% better again. Now I need to get back into doing longer runs. I've been going to the gym instead of running outside the last few days. Something about it being so cold in the mornings. ha,...

How are you doing, Ben? Saw your blog about aching knees. Take it easy on them. :-( I've signed up and got the hotel and airplane tickets to head down there for the PF Chang 1/2 in Jan. You still doing it?

Thank you Ben! It's really nice to have feedback like yours - I'm always trying to do something a lil different - my friend does a great character, lol, and he is such a good sport - he's a villian, and my father - isn't that twisted?! It's from Watchmen. Hope you have a good week - it's always nice to hear from you

it's normally in the upper 40s/low 50s when the race starts ... and well into the 60s when most of us finish. You'll be finishing faster than that :) You're kinda cool until you start running/walking ... and then everyone throws away their jackets. The homeless stand along the roadside to pick up your castoffs .. no joking. One guy in passing mentioned that the RnR Marathon was his Christmas :)

You're developing one heck of a killer body with the combination of size, muscles and conditioning. Great going!

You'll do GREAT. It's very well organized. Just remember there will be you and your closest 12,000 (and no, there aren't any extra zeros there) friends on the road. I've done it twice ... may do it again this Jan, too. We'll have to see. If you can run 50% of the course, you'll be doing better than 60% of the participants.

Glad you can tell a difference. I see myself every day, so I tend to not notice change very much unless people comment on it. Yeah, I know about the shirt, but I hardly take my shirt off unless I'm getting in water. I did come out of my shell a little this weekend and took my shirt off washing my truck. I guess the confidence has come up a little, but it has some more ground to cover.

Thanks, Ben. I'll try to get them loaded. This past weekend was great! Friends and family kept making comments about how good I'm looking and how skinny I am. Now to not let that go to my head, but keep me pushing forward cause I've still got a ways to go. I think it's the tan that is helping with the looks. LOL
