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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Run around the neighborhood. It felt pretty good overall. My right knee has something going on though, not much but keeping an eye on it, related the to lower back thing also going on.

Decided to skip the intervals and take it easy. Ran with Joe. Good run, knee was feeling better except for one random stabbing pain at the start of the last mile, then ok again.

Looped around the nbhd, out to Trinity Blvd and back to Tamarind, then up and down Robert Trent Jones with stop at golf course water then back to Trinity Blvd heading south before coming back home. This run was better than expected. Was planning on going slower but the pace I ended up with felt easy. Slowed a little on purpose the second to last mile, then pushed the last mile a little faster down to 7:12
Knee was incrementally better, concentrated on good form which helped.

Ran at Longleaf with the Striders- well, sort of as I was a few minutes late - so didn't actually run alongside anyone but I did criss-cross paths and saw a few people at the end of the run who hadn't left yet.
Easy paced warm up out to the water stop, just over 3 miles. Then, did 7 mile tempo run with the following splits: 6:46, 6:34, 6:33, 6:37, 6:43, 6:36, 6:29. Good confidence building run. It's been a little while since doing more than a 6 mile tempo run.

Ran out to Duck Slough, onto 54 then turned right onto Corporate towards Trinity. I noticed a new wooden bridge and saw it was part of a new trail going around a small lake, so I ran out to it. It's the new sports park. The trail is marked with 1/4 mile measurements, there's a real bathroom and two reasonably cold drinking fountains. After this detour, headed back down Trinity then ran along golf course out and back a bit.

Rode up to Spring Lake with Cynthia and met Chris there. Good easy pace but not too slow with a few pick ups. Weather was great. Saw Laura Cole for a bit. Someone stole Cynthia's cooler which wasn't stashed too well. Breakfast at Country Kitchen before heading home.
