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.

Ran another 5 mile tempo fairly slow.  I think that running tempo runs of longer than a mile or so is bad for my knee, even when I run them slow.  So, probably no more tempos in the next few weeks.

Easy run.  The cough and nasal congestion seem to finally be getting better

Ran a hard 400 today in about 71.  It felt harder than it should have

Ran 5x400 today with 400 rest.  Splits were 70, 70, 67, 68, 70.  Sasha requested that we slow down just a little on the last repeat, thus the slight slowdown.  Otherwise the run was pretty relaxed.
