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.
Just a basic run at 7:20/mile pace. Didn't feel that great, but it was a nice morning and I ran through some neighborhoods I usually don't run in, so that was good.
Nice run this evening from the DoubleTree downstream and back. Split the run into 3 parts: 17 minutes easy at 7:50/mile pace; 17 minutes at 7:00/mile pace and 17 minutes at 6:22/mile pace. The last segment seemed to be tougher than it should have been, but I was fully recovered after a minute or two of a cooldown jog.
Felt a lot better today than I did yesterday. Did an easy, moderate, steady/hard progression again. 12 minutes at 7:40/mile; 13 minutes at 7:07/mile and 10 minutes at 6:11/mile before a five minute jog with Leo.
