Personal:
I have five brothers and five sisters,
all younger. I'm currently a PhD Student in the CSEM (computational science) program at UT Austin. Married, no kids (yet). I've been dealing with some issues in running the last few years, and am trying to get back into top shape.
8.5 miles today. Did 3x1000, one uphill in 3:27, and two down in 3:09 and 3:06 respectively. My Dad was doing 3 x one mile. I just ran the first 100's with him. This run left me feeling pretty pummeled.

Hey Benjamin. I haven't checked out your blog in a while, but I saw your dad has been running a lot of his mileage with you. Are you enjoying your speed workouts with your dad? I find hard workouts to be satisfying and so much easier with help, like when Sasha used to help me.
