Hello from Long Island, New York
I am a former runner, who ran NYC Marathon twice, Long Island Marathon twice and a host of other races. Today is my first day back to the gym to kick-start a new training regimen. Scared...Oh yes, but I'm losing my mind not exercising.
After a two year sabbatical due to treating this disease with steroids for optic neuritis, trouble walking, fatigue and a whole number of other issues, I will start training TODAY! My plan is to begin slowly, and hopefully, lose these additional 20 pounds of fat, and one day run a 1/2 marathon again.
Anyway, I am out the door and will tell you about my revisit to the gym!
All the best,
Tony

Best of luck, Anthony! Does that pup run with you? That would be cute (and isn't cute what all runners strive for?). |

Thanks for your support and the kind words. My mini came with me for a run/walk yesterday of three miles. His name is Miles and he is the best.
FYI...it's pretty embarrasing when Miles and his little legs can out run me LOL!
Like the women running on the track next to me said,"I could watch your dog run all day"!
Be well,
Tony
