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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Shorter run this morning. Very cool and pleasant. Legs were a little tired at the start and felt refreshed at the end. I kind of had to trick myself into running at all. I was supposed to run 12 miles yesterday, however with the early morning and then 7 hours on my feet volunteering at the Police Appreciation race I'm hoping that it was the wise choice. I'm taking a new approach to back filling this blog. I'm going to start blogging each new run today as well as some ones I need to fill in, rather than waiting to get caught up before keeping up.

Ran at the Y with the Striders this morning at 5:30. More perfect weather. Easy paced start up and one surprise mile
under 7 (6:56), and then the rest under 8:00. Did a few sets of
weights after the run including leg extensions. Every little bit helps.

Shorter run, mostly easy pace average (10:00 first mile, 8:00 last
mile). Lots of flowering jasmine to run past this morning. Cool,
almost chilly weather.

Good run this morning. Ran with the Striders at Longleaf at the usual 5:30 meeting time, mainly alone, but
enjoyed the company at the start and end of the run. I was at a medium
effort pace most of the run except for 3 x 1 mile pickups of: 6:39,
6:43, 6:28
Awesome temps again - high 60's

Left the house just after 5:00 and
met up with Cynthia and Longleaf. We ran for a little bit with Jason
and continued to the park, then ran to the power lines before turning
back. Walked for a little bit once Cynthia got her mileage in, then
looped through Longleaf, back to Starkey Blvd and then home. Pace was
slower today, couldn't seem to go much faster and didn't want to try.
Have another 18 or so tomorrow. Horse flies were pretty bad inside the park today. I have not been bitten yet, but they are really annoying and they will bite if you stop or slow down too much.
I think I need to do a better job getting some sleep each night (or at least most nights) or else I'm going to have to cut back on the mileage.
