96 Days to Go

OK, so I went to the gym and did 5 miles. I didn't feel tired at all. I did want to quit a few times, but that's just because I am lazy. I felt good, my heart rate just went up to 153. Which was good for me. I will try and do that all week. Then I will go up to 6 miles a week starting this weekend and see how this works out. I think I might need some new running shoes. I also need a massage. Ankles and legs are getting a little sore.

September 29

Ok I did 5 miles but I realize I can't do 5 miles at the same speed I was doing 3 miles at. I will burn my self out. So I slowed it down and did the entire 5 miles.

Work out in the morning to get back on my pace.

Ok- so I went to the gym. The new goal is 5 miles a day for at least four days a week. I have to get ready to take on a bigger challenge.



I slept in and went to the gym late. I only did 4 miles and stop 2 times to catch my breathe- wow. But I am in bed by midnight and I will try again in the morning.



Good night.

100 days to go.

I finish the race. I did a great job, it was crowded in the beginning but I finish it off strong! We on our way to greatness. I am going to do this run again next year. Even if you dont run (because you can walk, its only 3 miles) you should do this race/walk.

Like I said, it was real emotional because of the 9/11 attachments to this race. I had a small race team. 4 people, but next year my goal is to run or walk with at least 100 people.

To see more photos from this event, go to the Gone 2 Soon web site and go to calender and pull up todays event. With a 100 days to go I am getting closer to my goal

September 26

Ok- so its pre day of another big race. No partying or drinking for me. I am focus. Its a short race but I still want to do good.

Strong start and powerful finish. Plus its a tribute to 9/11 heroes. So that's special and emotional to me. Being that I am a real true New Yorker the Twin Towers are more than just buildings to me. I grow up in Brooklyn NY and from the corner of my block I could always see the towers. Twin Towers is my Twin Big Brothers.

So I am up and ready for this race. I lost a lot of friends on that day. So I might even tear up.

Ok- so I choose night time work outs. I did 4 miles each day. My heart rate soar, to 186.

I feel good - 1 more day then I rest and get ready for a race Sunday morning to the Twin Towers.

I love this Miami fresh air.

Ok so I woke up this morning less than 8 hours after my last run. My back is hurting, my knees are asking me what I am doing am my legs feel like I got bricks in my pants. Despite all of that I still made my way to the gym.

I got on the trend mill and started telling myself, Ok I will only do half of what I am suppose to do. Then I start running and all the pain went away when I started to think about my goals.
So I finish out my run successful. 4 more miles and straight to the Whirlpool. Oh boy was my body in and pain and in need of the water.

Early to bed for me tonight, I guest after this run this weekend, I am going to a massage parlor. Hopefully somebody will give me a pass to there favorite massage parlor. Please do, email me at CEO@Gone2SoonFoundation.org
