Personal:
I am a 52 yr. old single father of four children. I am retired after injuring my back in 2000. I had back surgery, stopped running, and gained about 80 pounds. Decided to take my health into my own hands....lost 100 pounds, went to Nepal and trekked for two months in the Himalayas...climbed almost 18,000 ft.....felt so proud of myself....began running again. I qualified for Boston in Oct. 2009. I have shifted my focus now on ultra-marathons with the hope to run my first this year.

Second day of a 7 day water fast. Last night I had quite bad headaches throughout the night...had a hard time sleeping. Today, the headaches are almost gone....just mild. A few hunger pains developing, but nothing unbareable!
Ya..I'm not sure what is more difficult..a marathon or a 7 day fast, but, no I won't run during the fast...I don't have the energy. Just a time for light exercise, walks, sauna's...that sort of thing.
