Personal:

I'm married to a very supportive, although slightly less enthusiastic runner than I.  Alisha has run a little with me and participated in several 5k's, but mostly she supports me at races.  She ran her first half in November, 2011.  We have a son who was born in 2010, the year that I ran my first marathon.  I participated in my first Triathlon in April 2011.  I think I may have been bitten by the Ironman bug.  Though an Ironman finish is a long term goal, I want to BQ first. 

I find that the more I run the more I want to run.  I consider my self a running addict.  I like the motto: pain is weakness leaving your body.

Good run this morning.  Very cold at 26 degrees, but fortunately we ran east and west for the majority of the run so we avoided the north wind.  

My Garmin was dead this morning, so my data comes from my running buddy's Garmin.

Good run this morning.  Very cold at 26 degrees, but I'm pretty sure I've decided that the extreme cold makes me run faster.  I have more incentive to get back home to the warmth.  I ran this run the same distance with my running buddy on Sunday.  I feel pretty good because I ran this mornings run 31 seconds faster than my Sunday run with my running buddy.

Hard run at 4:30 in the after noon.   I would have rather gotten this run in this morning, but there was no way I was going to pull my self out of bed early after yesterday.  I did not get but 5 hours of sleep the night before and yesterday was quite a long day for me.  I got my braces on in the morning and we had our company dinner at P.F. Changs after work last night.  I'm ready to take some time off from work.
