I rank somewhere between the competitive recreational runner and the competitive highschool runner. Here's the scale:
10 - World record holder; 9 - Olympic Athlete; 8 - National elite; 7 - Professional runner; 6 - College All-american; 5 - College runner; 4 - Local elite; 3 - Competitive runner; 2 - Recreational runner; 1 - Jogger
It's a tough scale. Short-Term Running Goals:
-
Run for fun and health, be fit in my 40s
-
Run a strong half marathon, under 1:25, good, under 1:20, great.
Long-Term Running Goals:
- Be a disciplined runner, to be competitive in my age category, and feel strong while racing.
- Somehow actually put together a full year of running: increased discipline and decreased distraction and injuries
- Be a 17/36 guy for 5K/10K (not realistic now)
- Be a competitive Master's runner
Personal: Spoken for, Christian, piano player, soli deo gloria, at least that's the ideal. Living for Triune God, beautiful wife, cute sons, self; hopefully in that order but Adam's nature and my own choices, not to mention worldly temptations like to play with the ideal.
Idealism, tempered by reality, with a healthy skepticism. Favorite Blogs: |

| Wed - Jazz game, they put forth a good effort but lost to a deeper and more experienced Memphis team. Jazz Bear did everything he could but half-hearted Jazz fans in a 2/3rds filled arena didn't stand up. No shame in trying hard and failing, only shame in not learning from failure and not progressing.
Thu - Birthday present to myself was locking keys in car at Smith's and running home, biking back, picking up B & P, running back and biking home w/ a Mt. bike excursion to Arcadia to register P. Nice. Figure 2.5 miles running, 3 biking
