| Comments | I have been running for nearly 50 years and I love it just as much as I did when I first got started. I am running 25 or more races in 2011 and six will be half marathons. I have run 10 marathons over the years but not in the last 25 years. My body likes the 10-mile to half marathon the best. However, I do enjoy racing 5k and 10k too! To Celebrate 50 years of running and racing, I am planning on running 50 races in 2012 and I hope to average at least 75% age graded. My goal is to averge 80% or more but it is a lot of races. |
| Fitness Statement | I run or walk everyday and at least 30 miles per week. To race well I do need to push it at least twice during the week which I have not been doing. This is going to change. |

Ran 6.2 miles this afternoon easy. Walked one mile at lunch. Felt tired today.
Ran 4.2 miles and one quarter on the track. A little windy today but once I got going I didn't notice it. Need to do a race before I get into Double season...Ten Doubles in six months!
Ran one mile and walked two. This is getting to be a habit on Monday after doing a long run over the weekend. Legs feel a little tired from the weekend.
This is now four weekends in a row my long run has been at least 13 miles. The first weekend after Boston I was still running easy but the following weekend I ran 16.2 miles. Then 13.1 the next two weekend and then again this morning I ran our Los Gatos Creek Half Marathon course (starts at Forbes Mill and turn right after passing the Hamilton Underpass to return). My time today was my best...I ran 1:44:43 and we ran easy the first 1.5 miles (like 9:02 for the first mile) because my big toe is still bothering me from Boston. Michael really pushed me from mile three to six. Always a fun morning to run with Michael and then have breakfast afterwards.
My big toe is still bothering me. I hope I am going to be able to run 13 miles in the morning. Today I walked 1.5 miles.
My big toe is bothering me so I decided to walk today. I walked 1.5 miles. I am running 13 miles with Michael on Sunday and I will be ready. We have run 13 plus miles every weekend since Boston...
Ran 6.2 miles before dark and walked three miles during lunch. Still dealing with my big toe that I messed up in Boston. Went to see Amol today...
Ran and walked two miles today. I wanted to do more but just did not have the time...
Walked three miles at lunch and then I ran 4.1 miles with Michael before dark. I was hoping to run more tonight but it got dark.
My legs were a little tired from running 13 miles yesterday but I did an easy four miles. Glad I did it. I have been walking the day after a longer run but I am going to start running instead...but I will continue to work in some walking during the week.

Just email me your name and address. bob@doubleroadrace.com This offer just for Ujena Fit Club members...one per family.
Off to run the Los Gatos Trail...planning on doing 13 miles again this weekend. Training for the Double season....10 Doubles in 26 weeks! Have to be ready...
Best of luck to all Bay to Breakers runners...WE RUN STRONG...
Good luck to everyone running the Bay To Breakers 12k in the morning. Wished I was running...
I have been running 13-16 miles on the weekend the last few weeks and I am loving it...
Back home...I still can not believe what happened in Boston. What kind of person or group of people do such a cowardly act?
We are all okay. Can not believe what happened. I was waiting for Michael to finish when the bombs went off. I found out later that he had just finished four minutes before. Our hearts go out to thosed who were killed or injuries. 4500 runners were not allowed to finish...
Bob, so glad to hear that you, Michael
Amen. You guys are okay. This is really very upsetting.
Glad to hear you're all okay.
Boston is an amazing city...Michael and I are ready to get this thing going...good luck to all Ujena Fit Club members running including Fernando Cabada and Christine Kennedy...lets do it!
Good luck to you, Michael, Fernando, Christine and everyone else running Boston tomorrow!
Good luck, all. Hope each of you hits your goal. Run smart.
Good luck to Daniel Tapia also! Another fit club member. Think he is running...the second placer in the Double at Pleasanton.
We are almost done with our new Double Road Race site. Going live on Thursday afternoon. Been very time consuming...
