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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Out and back easy run from Westlake Village over to the Pinellas Trail then south until reaching 4 miles, then reverse back to start. Pace and heart rate pretty much where I wanted for this easy run.

Ran north on Starkey Blvd bike trail, out 4 miles and then back. Pushed pace a little outside of easy pace but mostly within general range, wanted to run pace under 10:00 today without losing sight completely of easy on easy days, hard on hard days, 80/20

Shorter run inside Westlake Village, another early morning with Jessica working the morning, pace a little faster and heart rate one beat lower than yesterday but partially due to shorter distance, less time for cardiac drift.

6x1km workout, did all six this time, and almost got all under 7:00 pace (with one right at 7:00).
Run up and down Starkey Blvd.
Paces: 6:55, 6:49, 7:00, 6:47, 6:57, 6:44
Taking the fastest 5 puts me just missing 21:00 for 5k, but there's race day magic

Early morning couple of loops inside Westlake Village, easyish for pace and heart rate.

Hadn't run with Cynthia for a while, so took her up on offer of track work. Met her at 6:45 at Longleaf. We jogged over to the Longleaf Middle School track. All gates were locked and fence is pretty tall. Track is supposed to be available for public use (or at least that was the plan), but I guess that's being worked out (or maybe they are hoping people will stop asking).
So, back up plan, ran on the trail around Cannon lake and did timed 1 minute on 1 minute off. I ran a little faster than Cynthia but close enough we'd be able to run the easy minute together and then start together. She did well and said she had better splits than if running alone.
Overall, pretty low average heart rate, fun and relaxing run.
