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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Garmin was down once again so I ran the same route as last Monday and just brought a stop watch for the time. No music again either, that was broken also. Weather was good though. Pre-rain humidity but a slight breeze, almost didn't feel like summer.

Ran at the Y with the Striders. Arrived just as everyone else was starting so played catch up during the run. Picked it up the last three miles. Ankle started bothering me a little bit toward the end of the run.
Coolish (not really cool, but not sweltering either), humid and a little damp

Ran around the nbhd loop, out to golf course water and a little beyond, then reverse route home. Started out at what felt like a shuffle averaging 10:11 for the first mile, but last three miles were much faster. Typical humid and warmer this morning than yesterday (also because I started later!)

Ran at Longleaf w the Striders group, specifically with Joe. Told him I needed to start slow it keep it pretty easy while ankle gets better so he stuck with me and we did just that. Warmish 80 degrees at the start, after about 3 miles it cooled a little and there was about 15 minutes of very light rain which felt good.
People stuck around a little bit longer as this is the last Thursday for a while when people don't have to rush off to get kids ready for school.

Short and quick run - by quick I mean I was pretty efficient in getting out the door, doing the run and getting in the shower. Ran out to the fountain and back. Pre-rain clouds and some thunder grumbling but it wasn't oppressive at all, kind of nice out.

5:30ish start at Longleaf by myself (although lots of other people starting just before me). Ran into group of Dixie, Jammie, Jorge, and Victoria just leaving from Diane's house, so turned around and ran with them to the park. Stopped at the shelter briefly then headed out farther into the park. Turned around with Diane and then ran with her and Beka back to Diane's house. Refueled there and headed back to Longleaf with a little extra down and back Towne Ave to get over 20 miles.
Felt pretty good overall, first mile was 10 something, then 9:10, then the rest mostly around or in the 8:30's
With 76 degree start temperature and some cloud cover once it got light out, pretty good conditions for running.
Joined the group at Havana Dreamers for a coffee before heading home.
