Sub 2:19:00 marathon Personal: I used to run competitively, and maybe I will do so again someday. Right now I am primarily running to try and get in better shape, and to maintain both physical and emotional health, but also for the simple joy that comes when I run.
I am also the proud daddy of five little ones. I love the opportunity that I have to be a daddy, and my challenge is to balance my family responsibilities with work and running. |

| Today I just needed to get out and relax for a while, so I didn't worry too much about the speed or the time while I was running and I went exploring. I ran around the golf course for a while (very hilly), after which I hopped onto some trails that were right next to the golf course and I ran around there for a while (not as hilly but lots of twists and turns). I ran through a few streams just for fun and I ended up making it back to my house after close to 1:50:00 of running. I estimate that I ran somewhere between 13.5 and 14 miles. I will count it as 13.5 just to be on the conservative side. | |

| I ran 10 miles today in 1:10:51. I kept the pace faster than normal because Kimia had somewhere that she needed to go. |

| The plan today was to run 10 miles. During the run I decided to add in some strides to get my legs moving a little faster without stressing myself too much. I ended up running 4 strides spread throughout the second half of the run and I finished 10 miles in 1:17:49. Upon arriving home I found out that I was locked out of the house so I ran around the neighborhood for a bit until Kimia got home again. This added approximately two more miles to my total for the day bringing me up to 12 miles for the run. | |

| I ran about 15 miles today in 1:48:27. I ran west through the park like usual, but then ran around the golf course again like last Saturday since the course is closed for the winter. After I exited the golf course I ran my usual route again until I hit 7.5 miles after which I turned around and retraced my steps. I kept up a decent pace throught the run, and during the last mile and a quarter I also ran 3 strides just to get my legs moving more quickly. 54:54 for the first half of the run and 53:33 for the second half with most of the difference coming in the first/last 1.5 miles (approximately 11:27 and 10:19). |

| I ran 11 miles today in just over 1:26:00. I felt tired near the end of the run and I wonder if I am coming down with something as I have had a sore throat since yesterday. | |

| I ran 11 miles this morning in 1:26:45. I ran on the golf course again plus I ran through some trails behind the golf course as well which kept my average pace slower than the effort would have indicated. In the evening I ran the last mile home from school after I initially started walking to give me 12 miles total for the day. | |

| I ran 10 miles today after I finished my final exam for the day. I forgot to bring my running watch with me, so no time for the run. After I finished I picked up my things and then ran the extra mile and a half home to finish with 11.5 miles on the day. During the last few miles of the run I also ran 4 short sprints spread out over about 3 miles. | |

| 10 miles this morning in about 1:18:00. Saw a girl on the ISU cross country team out on a run. I timed myself while running behind her and figured out she was running somewhere between 6:10-6:20 pace per mile. It is not often that you will see a girl out on an "easy" run going that fast. |
