Short-Term Running Goals:
Sub 40:00 10K- 2:59 Marathon
- 1:25 Half Marathon
- 18:30 5K
Long-Term Running Goals: Maintain my health and continuously seek to improve my fitness. Maybe someday get under 3:00 for marathon. More importantly, I'd like to figure out what my maximum ability is and reach that.
I'd also like to find the right balance in life and use running to enhance and improve myself.
Personal: Dad of three (welcome Charlotte Dani on 8/10/20) awesome kids and stepdad to three almost as awesome as my own kids.
I have a brown dog named Stella, and three cats - Catty, Tortie, and Esperanza.
(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose life started out rough but now has a better home.
I've recently started another blog so I can easily add lots of pictures and so other non-FRB users can leave comments:
Forward Progress!
Also, for 2012 I started a blog to write down each day one thing that I am grateful for
Grateful Blog
Love living in Florida but love to travel and see the country and rest of the world.

Slept in so Jessica could go to body combat class, then I ventured out to Colt Creek to check out the course with intention of completing one loop. No markings up yet but I did load the course into my Garmin. First time trying that and it worked pretty well except for one turn that I missed so ended up shorting the course almost 3 miles. If I'd run the whole course it would've been pushing it as far as being back before dark when the park closed but probably ok.
Kept the pace very easy and the slower pace included times where I had to stop and figure out if I was still on course.
Weather was very nice and cool, unfortunately will be slightly warmer next weekend with some rain especially on Sunday morning (good motivation to finish as early as possible!).
Course is in great shape, probably the best I've ever seen it with absolutely no water obstacles. By the end of the race next weekend it will be pretty wet but hoping for dry for the first two thirds of the race.

Another easy day but still a run nonetheless. I'd mainly been using Friday's for walking and biking combo, decided to run today. One WLV loop.

Two loops inside Westlake Village. I did keep an eye on heart rate today so went a little slower. Easing back into easy miles with goal of keeping one fast day and trying to pump of the mileage volume.

Back in Florida, first run (just walked yesterday), ran by feel not looking at heart rate. It didn't feel like it was that high. Looping in Westlake Village
