SUMMARY: OCTOBER 24-30, 2011

Daily Quote: "If you always put limits on what you can do, physical or anything else, it'll spread over into the rest of your life.  It'll spread into your work, into your morality into your entire being.  There are no limits.  There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyong them." --Bruce Lee

Last week Suzie came home from visiting relatives in upstate New York, therefore had to curtail my swimming, but did increase my running!  I'm now running 3 miles on two days...next week I'll increase another day of 3 miles.  Last week ran a total of 12 miles...baby steps, baby steps.
