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.
Ran to the track. Did 1200 in 3:45. Splits of 75, 74 and 76. It hurt. Julia did a quarter in 1:36 (her PR). Jenny did a quarter in 83 (her PR). Ran home and finished up with three miles, one of which with Jacob in 8:34.
6 miles today. Ran to the track and back. Julia did a quarter in 91.6 (her PR). My younger siblings seem very exited about doing time trials. They keep volunteering. I finished up with 4 miles in 31:47.
