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 had planned on 5 x 2000 on the track, but after I warmed up I realized that the track was locked all the way around. So, I ran a longer fartlek on the River trail. I had planned on doing the 2ks at about 5:52 average. The fartleks were around that range. I warmed up three miles and then ran 10 minutes, 8 minutes, 6 minutes, 4 minutes, 2 minutes, 1 minute with.5,4,3,2,1 minute recoveries. 10 minute was at 5:56 average, the 8 minute at 6:05 (all headwind) 6 minute at 5:54, 4 minute at 5:50, and I'm not sure about the two and one. I was just trying to stay under six minute pace. 6:22 average for the seven miles of workout. 1.5 mile cooldown.
