That is so awesome! Like Grim said you got another 1000 miles in you.  I am working toward doing a 5k in November. My trainer is getting me ready for that, improving my strength, and of course shedding fat. Exercise is changing my life.  3 months ago I got winded walking around a store, now I do a mile no problem. 50minute circuit workout, easy.

Amazing isn't it!  Some of us were hiding athletes inside that we didn't know about...

Tom, that's really incredible! Congrats.

BTW, where are you now on the east coast? I didn't realize until a post on the maintenance board the other day you had moved from Minni.

Merry, merry!

I'm in Jersey City - right on the Hudson River directly across from Manhattan... Can be in the big city in under 10 minutes.  Here's the view of Midtown and Freedom Tower from our apartment...

Beautiful view! In another life circa 1988 - 1989 I lived on West End and 78th. Went by there this past summer. It was a fun stroll down memory lane. Have to say I prefer my life in the burbs now to that of the big city though! Love visiting NYC, but I'm a country boy at heart.

I'm assuming you moved for work?

We're reversing  your journey - We never lived in the city, but always wanted to. The chance came up so we grabbed it. Nancy now walks (4 blocks) to work, I can see her office from my home office and she can see our apartment from her office... we walk everywhere... we went from 3 cars down to 1, and that sits 6 days out of 7.  We just love it.
