The Rock and Roll Marathon is one of several marathons we have in this area - there are lots of runners and walkers. This is a great area to come visit with lots to do, not just a beach.<br /><br />The new car is adorable! So Jerry took your car and you got the new one?

When I started using my heart rate monitor, my pace was 11:45-ish! I felt kind of ridiculous going that slow, but I realized that I really do enjoy running when I run slowly like that. My easy pace now is about 10:45 at the same heart rate, so it has improved Katie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733849582309631730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-5315172783472759332016-02-23T14:27:43.938-05:002016-02-23T14:27:43.938-05:00What are your opinions on the 80/20 running format...What are your opinions on the 80/20 running format that Fitzgerald presents? Have you found that you have improved your aerobic fitness given the time you have been following the program? I've just started, but already a bit setback and frustrated.

I did it a few years ago. It's very hard, but if you are committed, you can do it. I paid off student loans, a car, and credit card debt. I now only owe my mortgage. It's the best feeling in the world to not have to stress about money/bills!
