I ran about three miles this morning and it was about all I could do. To think jeff used to tease me about my indifference to a measley 3-miler. It was all the training plan asked for, so in my current state of undeveloped stamina and strength, I am following the Galloway training plan for 4 hour marathoners available on the MCM site. If it seems too "walky" I'll dump it for something else. I still have time.
One thing that is different for me is that I know how to train. The last time I was in this (lack of) condition I did not know enough about ebb and flow, stretching, variated paces, etc. It's like a new way of running. I have no injuries or anything to slow me down; just benign neglect to overcome and that will happen.
My name is David (Dylan to some). I am a runner.

Benign neglect = sick as a dog for 2 months.
I guess you haven't learned the one about not beating yourself up, yet :-) You have much to learn, grasshoppah.
interesting...i signed up for a training plan on the MCM site too...but they only went to a 4:40 finish, and then the next choice was just "Finish." I guess there's no legit times in between 4:40 and 4ever. So I signed up for the "to finish" plan, and so far it sucks. Maybe I should sign up for the 4:40 plan, just to make myself laugh.
