"In running, it doesn't matter whether you come in first, in the middle of the pack, or last. You can say, 'I have finished.' There is a lot of satisfaction in that." -Fred Lebow, New York City Marathon co-founder

4 miles
there was snow on the ground, but I got pretty warm on the first half of my run. The second half involved both the wind in my face and the hill, so it was slow-going. My hamstring hurts, and I think I'm taking a rest day tomorrow!

2011, here I come!
I haven't blogged in a while, but I have kept my running up. I finished my first race ever, the Turkey Trot 5K in Norwich, NY. I finished in about 32 minutes, which is a bit slow, but I was recovering from a nasty cold.
I also discovered running in the cold is not really any fun, but it does still feel good when you finish.
My main running goal this year - to run the Binghamton Bridge Run half-marathon in May.
I got 4 slow miles in today, but this is only the second time I've run since I have recovered from strep throat and the holidays.
