fishrmann Hey man, I've not been around much, Congratulations on the half, Mine is still a few months away.. It is almost impossible to train right now with all of this heat.. Ive been in the gym on the elliptical a bunch. I'm maintaining until I can get the longer runs in.. got about 8 or 9 miles in last saturday, but there was some walking at the end. Keep it up man you are doing great!
