 Posted: 03/21/03 - 23:05 Post subject: I finally did it!!
I was looking at my race results over at cool running and I realized that I finally beat my goal from last year.
I broke 7:30 pace for a race over 5 miles!!!!
15 km 1:08:19 (7:20/mile) March 8, 2003
10 km 46:22 (7:28/mile) November 9, 2002
For some of you speed demons this might not be a big deal but this is huge for me since I am up near 190 pounds so I am f***ing ecstatic about this!
I set this goal sometime last year and I finally noticed my pace and saw I have done it 2 times!
Have a great weekend.
Eric

Good for you! 
You weigh 190? Unless you're >= 6'-3", you're hiding it somewhere.

Even the people I run with at work can't believe I am that heavy.
I am 5' - 11" and 189 poounds as of Friday. Last April I had 16 percent body fat so I guess I have heavy bones or something. In some of my latest race pictures I still think I look like a tank which is fine. That is until this summer when the heat kicks in and I start sweating like crazy. If I could just force myself to do some ab work I could probably get back to the classic V shape I had in high school.
