I would like to run an Olympic Trials Qualifier in the marathon.

 Stay healthy!  (My biggest challenge!)

Run my whole life, and then live vicariously through my children. (just kidding) , but I do want to pass on a healthy lifestyle to them.

Help coach East High to a state championship. (hope it doesn't take a lifetime!)

Personal:

I've been running since I was nine.  I'm married to a fellow runner who inspires and supports me.  We have two children:  Cole (4) and Lily (18 mos.)  I help Bill Cobler coach cross country at East High School.

I really need to pay more attention to the postings at the Oval. I drove all the way out there again to find the speed skating championships were still going on.  I realized as I left that it was posted right on the front door that the track would be closed.  So, back to the treadmill!

I warmed up two miles and then ran a 30 minute threshold run.  I started at 10 mph and increased every five minutes.  

Mile 1: 6:05

Mile 2: 5:55

Mile 3:  5:51

Mile 4:  5:46

Mile 5:  5:40  Total time: 29:19  30 minutes  5.1 miles

I cooled down two miles.  The total time for nine miles was 57:48.  I really need to get outside to run!  Maybe tomorrow if the roads are clear enough.
