Subject: RE: Advantages of Having Trained Years Ago
Body:

I had almost identical track times in high school in 1996 and it does feel like the experience of running high school/college did help me make a come back the past 2 years. It is hard to pin point why it helps to have had a background in running but it seems to. Maybe muscle memory or mental toughness?

I actually attempted a come back when I was 26 and 40 pounds heavier than college. Unfortunately, I ramped up mileage too quickly as my mind thought like I was "back" but my body could not handle it and after a few months of terrible tendonitis in shins I swore off running again.

This time around I am hopefully a little smarter about the comback!
