I've only done a couple short jogs since the Boston Marathon, hoping some prolonged rest will revive my dead legs.  Alas, my legs have only worsened since then.  Believe it or not, this pace of about 11 minutes per mile is about the best that I can do, even for this pitiful distance of a couple miles.

I thought I had overtraining syndrome, but since rest doesn't seem to help at all, I'll be seeking some medical help to see if there if some other explanation can be uncovered.

In the meantime, life is good!  There's so much to do.  If I never race again, I'll be fine with that.  So many good memories to look back on.

P.S., If you can snag a copy of the October issue of National Geographic, there's a nice four page article about me.  This falls under the category of "things that you never dreamed would happen".
