I've been running since junior high. Ran middle distance in college with a PB of 1:52 for the 800 meters, then continued running with varying degrees of seriousness throughout my 20's and 30's. Moved up in distance and even ran three marathons (2:43 PB). Now just trying to stay in shape and find balance in life in my 40's.
Short-Term Running Goals:
Work out 30 minutes a day, six days a week
Long-Term Running Goals:
Stay healthy and consistent.
Personal:
Married with 3 children. Work as a school counselor.
Ran 3 miles pretty easy on the canals (icy/muddy but not too bad), then got Nica and we ran 1.3 miles around the neighborhoods. Felt good after yesterday - no soreness.
Did 3 x 5:00 (0.8mile) pickups during the run at just under 6:20/mile pace with about 1 min recoveries. Was a little tough but a good progression up to 20 minutes in another week or two.
From Municipal Park upstream on the dirt path, and back through Barber Park and some neighborhoods. Icy and slushy in quite a few places on the trail, but it was a pretty nice morning after it stopped raining and sleeting part way in.
