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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Short run, not feeling motivated so I liked doing this run where you are never very far from the start. Up and down the street (Lakeview Dr) in West Lake Village going from the neighborhood low point to high point.

One bigger loop (Alderman to Belcher and back in Westlake Village) and the smaller loop inside Westlake Village. Pushed the pace a little bit after having a good first mile (8:12 pace - getting better at those). Good run today but I will dial it back tomorrow and see what 9:30ish pace feels like.

Goal was to run even, steady, and hold back. 9:25 first mile, 9:13 last mile, slowest mile was 9:29. Out and back down the trail past Lake Dan preserve, onto Keystone Road and then turn around at the entrance of Brooker Creek Preserve. It was 81 degrees and sunny and a slight breeze for a little bit of cooling. Warmer air and humidity did not bother me today.
Glad to make my goal of running steady, and even though I didn't feel like I needed a break from running faster, I probably did.

Ran in Westlake Village, did not want to do loops today so started doing "up and down the street" on Lakeview Dr, but then I added in a small loop running up the Sandy Hook hill. Hadn't been up that in a while, not since last set of 400m hill repeats.
Pushed the pace a little but was doing fewer miles today, last mile was 7:11

Ran from my house in Foxwood and onto the trail past Lake Dan. Ran to Keystone Road and far enough on that so I'd get over 7 miles for the day. Started out kind of easy paced, but got a little faster as the run progressed.
It was warm up but either the breeze or maybe a little less humidity (and a few clouds) helped make it a decent run.

Saturday morning long run enough to get me over 40 miles for the week. Heading out of town later today so started out from Westlake Village. First, did a 1.25 mile warm up loop in the neighborhood, then headed onto Alderman, cut through Eniswood to Alt19 then onto the Pinellas Trail. Headed north until just past the Tarpon Tavern to almost where the trail turns to the East.
Turned around and headed back the way I came.
Quick shower then got onto the road to go to New Smyrna Beach for a couple of nights with Jessica, her kids, and Jacob's friend Corbin.
