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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

I was already planning on getting up at 5:30 instead of 4:50.
Pretty heavy rain at 5:30, so I stayed in bed for a while longer. Still
some lightning when I headed out, so went to the Y and started with 4.6
miles on the treadmill. It was all clear outside then so did 7.46
outside. While I was there did a couple sets of leg extensions.

Shorter run this morning, although I felt a little tired. Just
took it easy. One loop around the neighborhood, then out and back on
Trinity Blvd running on the dirt and grass. Tried out my new Brooks
Cascadia today, felt pretty good on and off the road. I decided I really needed a better pair of trail shoes and had heard a lot of good things about these shoes, plus they were on sale for $71.

mi,
01:17,
07:38 pace Ran at Longleaf with the Striders. Today turned out to be an anchor run. It felt like a solid run where I accomplished something (I'm not sure what exactly, though, but something).
Nice cool and damp morning. A few puddles on the trail but pretty
easy to get around. I did 3 pickups of 1 mile each 6:41, 6:36, 6:33. I
missed out on the coffee but there were some bananas left when I got
back. Ran with Diane for the first two miles. I guess being able to do the pickups during the run and end up having the whole run feel better for it, lets me know I can go faster when I need to.

Out and back mainly on the grass, with a detour to the water fountain to gel up. Beautiful, cool, partly sunny morning. There was something weird going on with my left foot. I could feel it in the arch and later on in the top of the foot. Not sure what it was though (and since I'm backfilling these entries, looking into the future to Monday, it seems to have cleared up).

08:45 pace SR50 and Suncoast Trail, Brooksville
Arrived there just as it was light. It's been a while since
running here, they now charge $3 for parking. Headed south down the
trail a little over a mile and then came back, grabbed my fuel belt and a
handheld and headed north, about 11 miles up and then came back. Just
enough accelerade with me. Glad they have a cold water fountain at the
shelter. I felt a little sluggish and stopped a few times but was happy
to get it done.
