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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

mi,
03:22,
09:03 pace This was my biggest back to back run mileage I've done so far with just over 40 miles in two days (previous longest was 38 miles a few weeks ago).
It was cold this morning and I was by myself, so it was kind of
tough to get started. My starting pace was pretty slow, needing to warm
up and taking it slow going downhill on the very rooty section down
Tucker Hill.
I ran two big loops, the first one was just over 11 miles, the
second one a little bit shorter so I continued running past the parking
lot a little bit to make it over 22. Once I warmed up, the run felt
great. I needed hills and trails so this was perfect. For the second
loop, I ran part of it on Croom Road which is actually tougher than any
of the on trail sections. This was the first time I did a Sunday run
which was longer than the Saturday run, also my biggest total
back-to-back mileage at just over 40. I barely listened to music (just
a little bit on Croom Road). The trails were very quiet, I didn't see a
single person until I finished. I did hear one dog, and then saw
another dog, a beagle. The barking dog that I didn't see was probably
also a beagle. Heard one gun shot. Saw two turkeys crossing the road
on the drive there. Can't wait to come back.

08:29 pace Ran at Longleaf with the Striders group (although mostly ran by myself, but still nice to criss cross people you know)
Good run this morning, cool in the high 50's. I started just after everyone else, so just took it easy and got in 8 miles.

Warmerish than yesterday. Very relaxed pace until the last mile.

Started out by myself just after 5:30 from Longleaf. But, while I was running did get beeped at a couple of times.
As I got to
Diane's house a group had just left from there. I topped off my bottles
and then ran into the group which had looped back for me. We ran into
Starkey which was pretty much empty except for a few people. Patrick Bene (a friend of mine who has done a number of ultras including 100 mile races) chided me for not
doing enough off road. So, at his suggestion I added some in on the return trip (and was very glad I did). Finished
up and met Keith at Havana dreamers for some coffee to go (his treat!)
