Personal: I am married and have two wonderful kids, 14 and 10. I've been running since 1982. I never get "basic" injuries. I always get the real nasty career threatening kind, like stress fracture of the sacrum, ganglion cyst clamping down on my peroneal nerve. Favorite Blogs: |

| Today ran a pretty solid 15 miles. Didn't really plan on going that far, but wanted to run the second half of next Saturday's half marathon course. Started out with an easy 3 miles on the trails in Hawthorn Park, then headed out on the course and ran 6:45-6:55 pace the rest of the way. Not even sore from yesterday's race except for left hip flexor. Had a little GI disagreement along the way, but overall felt great. |

| Ran a pretty solid 13 miles w/ Jacki this afternoon, same course as last Sunday in 1:31:45, about 3 minutes faster than last Sunday. Down around 6:40 pace on some of the mile. Temp really warmed up though, and humid, 79. Started to struggle the last couple of miles, but still held pace. Now for a couple of easy days to prep for Saturday. |

| Ran a somewhat tough 8 miles with Dave and Jacki tonight from Meadows, through Deming, Woodridge and Robinwood through Rose-Hulman and back. Had 31:20 half way, 58:56 at the end. Struggled in some spots. Didn't feel well earlier in the day, but with some OJ and a decent lunch, I was OK this afternoon. 4 more days until the race. Now for some easy rest days! |

| Once again struggled on the run. Now developing congestion in my lungs... In Bolingbrook. Made it 1.75 miles barely at 8:30 pace. Didn't get in town last night until about 1 and went in to work at 8. Now, drinking OJ, Gatorade, "Sticking" and resting up, hope I can still race on Saturday. |

Ran The Blues At The Crossroads Half Marathon today in a pretty
decent 1:19:50 for 2nd overall. Pretty tough course, but handled it
pretty well. Temp cool 59 at the start and a little humid, but good
conditions. Fighting some pretty bad lung congestion as I came down
with a cold when I was in Bolingbrook earlier this week. Explains why
legs were completely dead for two days. Went out the first mile with
eventual winner Tim Monaghan in 5:47 and had to let him go, I wasn't
going to maintain that today! Splits: 1 5:47 2 11:40 (5:53) 3: 17:37 (5:57) 4 23:36 (5:59) roughly 45 seconds off the lead at this point and only about 20 seconds on 3rd 5 29:48 (6:12) 6 35:58 (6:10) wondering at this point if I was going to break 1:20 7 42:02 (6:04) 8 48:13 (6:11) 9 54:27 (6:14) 10 1:00:53 (6:26) Hitting the hills now! Trying to accelerate on the down hills to hold off 3rd place 11 1:07:16 (6:23) 12 1:13:27 (6:11) 13 1:19:39 (6:12) F
1:19:48. Splits are off my Garmin rather than course markers. Garmin
was dead on right through 4 miles, then it started to lose. Others in
the race had 13.08+ on their Garmins. No problems at all with the left
groin muscle. Excellent effort, but work week really got in the way, and there's things I really need to be working on.
