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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Easy run through the usual neighborhood and fox hollow route. Nice to get the run done and start the week.

Very steamy this morning, but a good run. Ran with Joe for a bit
and also saw Eudair. Was able to get all three intervals below 6:00
today - 5:52, 5:50, 5:46. My legs felt strong and I felt a little more solid than usual this morning. I'm hoping it is not temporary.
Nice seeing everyone and enjoying some
cinnamon flavored coffee.

Thought about skipping class but decided the alternative would be
less productive. I forgot my watch which was better than I thought it
would be - I usually look at it a lot to help get me through it. There is a clock on the wall but it is behind me, so I counted songs. Spent some time off the bikes doing stairs, squats, and push
ups. Ran to water fountain and back for 3 miles once I got back home. Definitely just a little bit cooler than past days as well as staying dark later and later - fall is coming.
Next couple of days will be on the treadmill.

Slow at first, then did a few "hills" for variety, picked up the pace after that and varied the speed. Good run overall.

Another good run on the treadmill. A little slower overall on pace but more distance and feeling better after the run.

Slow on the way up until reaching
Diane's house. A little bit faster into the park. Ran back by myself.
With about 1.5 miles left while I was zoning out someone came up behind
me and startled me. I didn't hear her at all until she said "Boo" just 3 feet away. Apparently my bright green shirt made me a target to catch up to. I have done that myself, especially if it is dark out and they are wearing a blinking red light.
So, ran the last bit with Cynthia with a good pick
up for the last 0.25. After the run, stretched a little, laid down, the rain started outside then the week caught up to me and I was asleep for two hours. Felt much better after I woke up. Haven't fallen asleep after a run like that in quite some time.
