Short-Term Running Goals:
Sub 40:00 10K
- 2:59 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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose life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.

I ended up calling this "mixed intervals" but it was really supposed to be more of a descending ladder with increasing paces - 1200, 1000, 800, 600, 400. But instead it was more like - 1200, 600, 400, 800, 500. During what was supposed to be the 1k, felt way off and ended it early and then sort of ran whatever. Better than nothing I guess. Strava says I PR'd in the 800 and 400, with me beating my previous 400 PR by 0 seconds.
It is interesting that in the about 7+ years of using Strava I have not run faster then these paces.

Just one run today, no evening run due to work function. Easy run 1/4 run/walk with average pace a little faster than normal for this type of activity.

5 mile tempo run with goal pace of 7:24 and actual pace 7:09 - 7:16, 7:07, 7:00, 7:16, 7:06
Had to get an early start so Jessica could make it to an appointment and I'd drop off Charlotte at school.
Getting workouts and paces from Run Less, Run Faster with goal time of 3:20, a bit of a stretch but want to see how far I can make it and either hang on or if I'm falling apart maybe regroup. So far, kind of good.
Next week's tempo is 4@7:09 which is the pace I ended up doing today for 5 miles so in theory it should be easier.

Easy running 1/4 run/walk. Some soreness in my left achilles or maybe it is some PF starting, feel it after sitting. Thought I might not be able to run this morning but felt fine while moving and no worse afterward.

| No running today, had gone out to Orlando to watch Charlotte at her cheer competition. Drove out last night so we'd be there early, traffic was horrible.
Headed back after the competition, traffic was just as bad as last night except at least it wasn't dark. I-4 can be crazy. Might've been better just to get up early this morning and miss the traffic at least in one of the directions.
