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.

Started out the week with a longer run.  Gonna run a 5k Saturday.  It's going to be pathetic.  That's ok.  Fast finish at the end.

Took me 3-4 miles just to warm up today.  It was rainy

Went to the gym to run while Cole cross trained.  He's coming back from a stress fracture.  I hate the treadmill.  Progression run from 7:47/mile to 6:45/mile with 1 minute pushes every five minutes, starting at 6:27/mile and ending at 5.52/ mile.

Really tired this morning. I had to cut back a little bit.

I didn't fuel very well this morning.  So, I felt nauseous and dizzy when I ran.  Ran from the gym out to the canal road and back on 5300.  Tville 5k tomorrow.  We will see if I can stay ahead of Lily.

Well, that went about how I expected.  Hoping to break 20.  Came close.  Too hard through first mile.  Second half of the race was a struggle fest.  Need to work on upper body strength.  My arms were toast after mile 1.  Lily was about 30 seconds behind me.  3 mile warm up.  2 mile cooldown.  Off to dance rehearsal!
