Short-Term Running Goals:
Sub 40:00 10K
- 2:59 Marathon
- 1:25 Half Marathon

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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose life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.

Tough run today. After having two pretty good 16 mile runs on Saturday in a row, today would not be one of those good runs
Started out later than planned and this time we did not have the cooler weather like the last few weeks. But still, there was hope because running in the shade there was a hint of a breeze. Ran from Westlake Village, over to the Pinellas Trail via Delaware and then northboud to Klosterman. Noticed a mural in progress on both sides of the train tunnel. Ran a little bit on Klosterman and turned around cutting through a church parking lot that gave me a little extra hill. Miles were going pretty good and after the slower start at first was heading to soon average faster than 9:00 pace. Made it down to conservation park, now about 6 miles into the run. Morning at really warmed up. The cold water was much appreciated from the cold fountain. Continued down the trail, mile 8 got rough, heart rate was up. Alternated in some walking to try and settle things down. Finished up mile 8 and thought about slowing down enough for a sub 130 heart rate.
Instead decided to cut back to 13 miles instead of 16 but try and hold a pace. Average pace from run/walk was not at 9:18.
Turned around near Ozona Elementary and ran back to where I had stashed my water belt. That was the other problem, elastic had finally worn down enough so the bottles were bouncing quite a bit. Bottles were now almost empty so no longer a problem. Put the belt back on and headed back home with pace average ending up at 9:02.
