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 steady most of the way and picked it up for a bit on the way back. Too many days off running last week for no good reason. Felt great to get out today - warm and spring-like conditions.
Great run from the cabin. Did a subdivision loop, down the water road, to the Middle Fork Rd., up Baker Rd for about 5 minutes, then back to the cabin and another subdivision loop. Lightly snowing and perfect temperature out. Lots of hills!
Left the cabin for a planned 40 minute run, which turned in to an adventure. I got completely lost and ended up asking directions and using someones phone to call Emily. I hammered a couple of miles to Terrace Lakes where Emily met me with the car (and not much sunlight left). If it wasn't almost dark and I didn't have someone waiting for me, it would have been fine. But I was a little stressed out as it was.
Really tired this evening and feel like I'm coming down with something. Managed to make myself get on the treadmill and do an easy, easy jog with a few pickups at h.m. pace near the end.
