Personal: Married, with 1 daughter
IT Analyst/Programmer for 20 years. Also, an avid gardner with a small retail nursery on the side.
I've been a runner most of my life. I started running in 5th grade when the high school coach started a "run for fun" program at all the grade schools in the school district. Also, growing up my neighbor, who was about 8 years older than me, was a superstar in high school with a 4:15 1600m in the early 80s. So I had some good role models.
Most important, I love the Lord, and serve Him in my church and in Bible Study Fellowship, which is an international Bible Study open to people of all church backgrounds (i.e. interdenominational). If you are looking for a phenomenal way to study the Bible and draw closer to God this is the study for you. Check out BSFInternational.org to find a class near you. They are all over the place!

| 6 miles in 47:41 (7:57/mile)
Planned to run 7 or 8 miles. About 1/2 mile into it I decided to just do 3. Too tired, everything hurts. After another mile I loosened up, so I turned right instead of left and added another loop. I got back to my building and was at 5.4, so I tacked on a bit more to make an even 6. I call that a win!

| 8 miles on Military in 1:02:59 (7:52/mile)
I didn't have a plan going out other than, if I felt good I might try doing 6, but I expected to be tired and thought I might only do 3. But, it was a beautiful day, I was lost in thought, and before I knew it I was out 4 miles and still had to get back. It felt surprisingly good. I have to go all the way back to January 23 to find the last time I ran 8 miles.

A little slow, but felt pretty good. I meant to go 4 miles, but was feeling pretty good so kept adding another mile.

| 6.19 miles on Vickory in 48:17 (7:48/mile)
It's been a long time since I ran on Vickory. Most of my runs have been too short to get to Vickory. Cloudy, low 60s, perfect day for a run. Legs a bit tired, but feeling ok.

9 miles feels like a long run at this point.

Feeling good today, weather was sunny but not too warm. Last mile was not too hard, but hard to believe I used to be able to run a whole marathon faster than that!
