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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Another short walk/run. Loop inside Westlake Village late in the morning. At least a little bit faster than the last one.
In addition to this walk/run I did a couple of walking loops with Jessica and the baby and then one last walking loop myself.
Goal was to get 85,000 steps for the week, which I did by getting in over 17,000 steps today.
I haven't hit many goals of any sort, so today felt like a turning point.

Finally a run! Still slow but faster than what I had been doing. Also, this was the farthest at one time for July. I can build on this.

A tiny bit farther and a little bit faster than yesterday. Working down the pace to try and get out of the 11's . Been keeping up with doing some mobility exercises and some exercises to strengthen around the knee. Changes have not been night/day but enough to keep me moving.

Made it back into the 10 minute pace range finally. Ran from my house, then along SR54 and crossed the street and then to the pool at Longleaf where I used the fountain before heading back. So, besides faster, once again a little bit farther.

One big loop inside Westlake Village and then a little more added on up and down Lakeview. Starting to add up some miles finally. Have my sights set on 100 which I missed last month by just over 6 miles due to getting sick at the beginning of the month, some travel days - more than I've had in quite a while, and then knee problems.

Adding in some more miles in tha bank. From WLV, cut over to the Pinellas Trail and then southbound until reaching just past 3 miles, then turnaround and com back. A little bit faster than yesterday.

At the start of the run, wasn't sure if I had 6 miles in me or if I would have to run slower today than yesterday, trying to be careful not to push to much.
Ran inside Westlake Village. After the first loop started a second one and as I approached 6 miles felt like 7 would be ok. The extra mile helped get my overall pace faster. Maybe get out of the 10's soon.
33 miles for the week! 100 for the month is definitely doable.
