Short-Term Running Goals:

Get fit again! Casper Marathon on June 8th in Casper, Wyoming. I don't have a specific goal time for it, as I don't know the course real well, but I'd like to shoot for 6 minute pace.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Run for your life! Stay active enough to eat seconds and ice cream without guilt.

Personal:

Married to a beautiful wife AnnMarie, who is also a 3:15 marathoner and the mother of our handsome 2 year old, Myles and newbie Sullivan. Sullivant was born 2 years and one day after Myles was born. Myles knows only one speed--running all out. Kinda like Prefontaine.  Besides running, I enjoy reading, woodworking, fishing, and chasing Myles around our house.

Interval workout from Jack Daniels' marathon training program. 10x1000 at 3:00 minute pace (72 second/400). I hadn't gone this fast since college, and wasn't sure I could do it again. The recovery was 5 minutes in between each interval, but 72 pace is quick for me, especially alone, so I recruited George Barlow to come help me out. He was late as usual, and I knew he had to be somewhere, so he ended up only making 5 before he had to split. It sure was nice having him there though, even if it was for the easier 5. I found my groove on the 7th one finally, and kept them all at 3:00-3:02. Big confidence booster.
