7/12- It's Been Too Long!

So I've slacked pretty thoroughly in my updates.  Many changes have been wrought since the last time I wrote.  I've taken the new job I was so heartsick about and moved!  I've found a new soccer team here and trying to get out and make friends.  It can be lonely but I've had the support of my family and my friends.  Despite the distance between myself and those people I still feel close.

More importantly I haven't given up running.  Despite some recent struggles with my weight I'm trying to stay fit by training for a 1/2 marathon.  In the interm I've run the following races to stick with my plan of running a race every month (except for February when it got snowed out)


March: 1/4 Marathon - Time 66:57 - Pace 10:19
April: Farmington Trail Run 5K - Time  - Pace
May: Coast Guard Duathalon (Run 2, Bike 12, Run 2) - Time 18:20, 62:01, 18:16 - Pace 9:10, 5:15, 9:08
June: Scramble 5K - Time 30:27 - Pace 9:48
July: 4 on the 4th  - Time 40:33- Pace 10:08
August: Beach to Beacon 10K - Time 60:45 - Pace 9:47

For the moment bringing my average race pace to 9:53
