Where are my people?

Getting back into running after losing 15 plus pounds. On my tiny frame, that's a lot. I'm 56, female. Love to run fast rather than all day long.

I'm doing my own workouts at college track and on the trails and it's great but lonesome. I live in the northern Rockies so the towns are small but this is ridiculous! Where's everybody?

Anyone on here ....master athlete...who runs even 800 or 400m?

Is sprinting for teenagers?

Am I dreaming? Have I embarked on a short trip to the orthopedic?

I easily won my state senior Olympics with time that qualifies me for the National Games (such a low bar) but I want more serious competition.

Need a reality check LRC....

No you aren't crazy. Thousands of seniors compete in the sprints. I'm one of them. What does your current training look like?

Two days on the track doing slow jogging 400s, starts and plyo and then 200s and 4 x 100, more if I can

A core and yoga day

A weight day

Hiking if summer and xc ski in winter

My next big race is the Big Sky Games July 16

Well, Mister Jamin Sr, I can only assume that you weren't "in the picture" during your son's upbringing because he is, shall we say, IN CRISIS at the moment.

Something about videos and diapers. He does appear to be heading for a profit center, though, so you'll want to get in on that, as usual.

And yes, he's in residence at Mom's.
