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. |

I ran with the same basic group as normal, minus Daniel. We ran to the lake and back for a total of 10.1 miles. I finished in 1:16:06. I took a standing vpb in the middle of the run, so I did pick up the pace for a little over 300m in order to catch up.
PM: 4 miles in 29:52

We ran 10.2 miles total in 1:22:06. I ran a hard mile in the middle of the run in 4:42. The goal was to run a 4:40. I started off hitting the first 200 in 34, so I slowed down to a 36 for the second 200 (400 in 70) which was perfect, however I relaxed a little too much and I went through the next 400 in 72 (36, 36). I then sped back up and hit the last two quarters in 70, 70 with almost even 35 second 200's. So, all in all I was pleased. The last 800 was a lot harder than I thought it would be, but it was not unbearable so I am happy.

I felt really drained last night, so I got to bed a little earlier than normal, which was good. 10 miles this morning with the normal group, plus Mary Ann's friend. We ran 4 miles with the friend and then 6 more to finish up with a total time of 1:24:07. PM: 4 miles. I am leaving to get it done right now, then off to work. I ended up running the 4 miles in 29:26.

| I basically did the same workout today that I did on Tuesday; I went to the lake and back, and I threw a hard mile in the middle of the run. I ran the mile in 4:42 again. This time however, I felt drained almost from the beginning, and I had to work much harder in order to finish in the same time. My splits were: 70, 71, 70.5, 70.5 (the last two quarters are approximate because obviously I can't measure that exactly while on the run, but I know they were about the same based on my watch, and the cumulative time for the second half was a 2:21). If I felt good I was going to take 4:40 pace to a mile and a quarter, but after 1 mile I was spent, so I packed it in and called it a day. Total time for 10.1 miles was 1:20:13.

10.1 miles in 1:16:27. I am a little tired because I had a late night at work last night, but I feel better than I thought I would considering how tired I was at about 9:00 last night.
PM: 4 miles in 31:41. Nothing special happened, but I did feel a little tired.

| I did my long run with Sasha this morning. We just did the normal 10.1 like always, but we did it twice. 5.05 mile splits were 32:18, 31:37, 30:06, 29:38. Total time for the run was 2:03:39. We started off at about 6:40 pace and quickly sped up until we were running sub 6:20 pace. We then held this until after we were over half way finished. We then sped up and started hitting miles in the 5:50 range. At the end I sped up a little more and got down to about 5:40 for the last mile or so (last half mile in 2:49). |
