Personal:

I am a 37 year old Male.  I have been married now for over 15 years.  I have three kids, all boys.  My boys ages are 14, 11 and 7.  I have always enjoyed running and my wife is slowly being converted.   While I was going through college I didn't do much running so I am having to teach my leg how to run fast again.

Hill mile Challenge.  Just as small group.  This is more a race with yours self.  You predict a time the person with the slowest time starts first.  The person with the fastest perdiction starts last.  The person that crosses the finish line first wins. I perdicted a 6:00 with my conditioning I felt was realistic.  About 2.5 laps of 4 I was on a 5:40 pace.  I need to work on my conditioning.  I finished in 6:01.  I warmed up and cool down, then went back to work.  A nice benifit of working at Hill is I get 3 hours of (paid) personal fitness time a week.  Its nice.  My feet are starting the feel ok about running again.  I am trying to add miles back slowly.
