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.

Sun, Mon - rest, Tues - B-ball, played pretty well, running and gunning, ran late night afterward S around neighborhoods to open park (S of 5400), good but felt a little peaked. 4.5 M

Th- b-ball, got a little physical with Penny, am driving to hole better, tweaked the outside of my left knee, also the right achilles hurts, Fri - ran a little in good shoes from Salt Palace, 1/2 mile

Sat- after Greek festival went running to Park across Bangtr, did some loops, felt good and strong, knee was fine but Achilles started to hurt, running on uneven grass wasn't the best idea, had to jog last 1/2 mile 5.5m

Mon - was going to run with track club but rained, Tues- played pretty well but lost every game, need to let it come and realize other player's weaknesses and strengths, tweaked knee again.
