Short-Term Running Goals:

Keep on running, enjoy it for the sake of running, relax and enjoy life...de-stress.  Stay fit as I enter retirement in  2025.

No racing, retired.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running until this old body says no, running for fun.

Personal:

 I started running competitively in 2005 and ran my first marathon in 2005. Now retired from competitive racing.

Bend down, O Lord, and hear my prayer;

answer me, for I need your help.
Protect me, for I am devoted to you.
Save me, for I serve you and trust you.
You are my God.
Be merciful to me, O Lord,
for I am calling on you constantly.
Give me happiness, O Lord,
for I give myself to you.
O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive,
so full of unfailing love for all who ask for your help.
Listen closely to my prayer, O Lord;
hear my urgent cry.
I will call to you whenever I’m in trouble,
and you will answer me.  - Psalm 86:1-7

4:45am...5 easy untimed miles with Moxie on a cool morning.  At least I got out the door this morning.  (Ride)

6.25 miles on a nice day at lunch.  Ran a few miles with Dan then on to the running store then back to the office.  A good midday run.  Too bad the rest of the day went to crap. (Mirage)

A good day of running.  I got out early for an easy 3 miles with Moxie then I met a group including Curt, Alana and Gama for  more through SRL.  A total of 9 miles in 1:07.

I came home and grabbed Justin and we went to the Run to Feed the Hungry and saw lots of friends.  I paced him in the 10K and we finished in 43:55.  Justin was the second person under 20 to finish (behind a HS senior) and was in the top 20 overall!!  With the warmup about 7 miles.   (Boost)

I feel like I definitely earned the dinner today, including an extra pie of piece and glass of wine!

Happy Thanksgiving to the FRB!

We slept in this morning after a late night yesterday.  We went to the gym and I played with the kids in the pool while Kami exercised.  In the early afternoon I took the kids and the dog out for a run...in shorts!  1 mile with Katelyn and Moxie, then Justin and I ran to Bill's Bike and Run to say hi to Gray then ran home.  We did a total of 7.25 miles having a gret time chatting and enjoying the beautiful fall day.  (Mirage)
