As...Congratulations on that year! You are flying!!<br /><br />As for me, having lost the extra weight, I am now able to do 10K faster than last year even without training. So most likely I will be running the May 25th race again, aiming for 55 minutes or so (I did it in 1h8m in '09, my record for now is 59m51s).Lucianohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07444474926689088601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3055826050533494197.post-21889592100692152792010-12-28T19:34:45.720-05:002010-12-28T19:34:45.720-05:00Thanks bookit - looking forward to those runs in 2...Thanks bookit - looking forward to those runs in 2011 !JohnnyGohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07066044088204621107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3055826050533494197.post-57422050997959921142010-12-28T19:28:20.141-05:002010-12-28T19:28:20.141-05:00CONGRATS on an awesome year John.
