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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Ran with Cynthia and Renee starting on the Suncoast trail and heading south to where it turns into the Upper Tampa Bay Trail. Miles were pretty easy, went a little bit faster towards the end and also ran into a pretty good headwind. Low 60's for starting temps which was very nice. Legs a little tight here and there from yesterday's race.

Ran at Longleaf, 5:30ish with Striders. Out and back just past the water stop, ran with Anthony the whole way. Back to being cool again this morning (cooler than Saturday or Sunday), about 59 degrees at the start.

Ran in the neighborhood by myself, good weather again. Nothing too exciting today, started out easy and ended up picking it up on the way back (partially because I was running out of time!)

After about 1.4 mile warm up, did a short tempo run which went pretty well
splits: 6:47, 6:40, 6:30, 6:37
The second and fourth miles had a breif slowdown navigating through a closed gate but mostly made up the time. Weather was good again today and it was nice to piece together 4 faster miles in a row.
PM - ran at the Y on the treadmill briefly after doing some weights. 1.25 mi, 10:30, 8:24 avg

Ran with Jamie in the neighborhood, easy conversational pace. Started out together but she was running 10 and I had to get home to get the kids moving for school. Another day of being blessed with good running weather.

6:00ish start (actually I was 5 minutes late, so more like 6:10. Ran with Jamie from Longleaf to Diane's house where we picked up Cynthia, ran into Starkey park, brief stop at the shelter then headed out. Saw Daisy coming back but she was walking. Talked to her for a second and said she should turn around and run with us to our turn around. She was supposed to finish her run fast (goal pace) but had gotten into a slump so we said we'd pick it up -ran just under 8:00 for first mile and about 7:40 for the second mile. Then we continued on, back to Diane's house to drop of Cynthia and then back to Longleaf with last two miles at about an 8:20 average. (few seconds faster than Jamie's goal marathon pace).
Weather was cool and humid at the start (very light fog almost), some of the humidity burned off by the end of the run and fortunately it didn't get too warm - breeze kept it feeling cool.
