On the road again

I am back to my training schedule, I currently run 7 to 9 miles three days a week, and am building to 10 to 15.
I understand that it does not sound much to a regular marathoner, but going on 63 , I think 20 to 30 miles a week is excellent.
The Detroit international half marathon is a couple of month away, and I want to make a good showing. My first half marathon I came in at 2 hours 58 mins. I would like to better than time by at least one minute?
Each of us needs goals, and the only goal I have been able to set up that is remotely achievable, is running and health.
I guess a lot of people would love to be able to attain those goals.
However, when you have been at the pinnacle of success and then lost it all, it is hard to fight back to that high level of energy and goals.
I believe that one day I will get there, however, I do not see that happening in the near future, as the economy and job picture keeps making it harder for seniors to compete and prosper.
I think it is time for a change, Barack has not made it happen and I am disappointed in his efforts?
We need a stron fiscally conservative to straitened things out in our government.
So to all you liberal type, sorry I am going with Mitt.
Actually, it probably make no difference what I say, no one reads this blog anyway, but I get to spout off whatever I feel like.
Take care
Check back later
