Hello All,
I am new to the blog. My Name is Scott (a.k.a Scooter from here on out). I have been a "walker" for the past 3 months. I started walking to lose weight and became addicted. I used to run with Forrest years ago and had to stop due to recurring knee injury. The walking has paid off well (50 lbs in 3 months) But as I have hit yet another plateau in my quest for the all american body not to mention the pressure from Forrest and the encouragement from Sixpack Chopra i have decided to kick it up a notch and begin to train for the Madison marathon in May. This will be a task for me. I am the father of 2, little league coach for 2 teams, and I star Fireman training school in 1 week. All this said I am scheduled with the program from runners world to begin full on training on Moday, Jan. 7. I have been running a mile a day this week and will begin searching for local 5k runs in the near future. Thank you for your time and thanks for the invite Sixpack!
