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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Shortish easy run in the neighborhood before getting the kids going. Did a couple of strides at the end to try and ease back into some faster stuff here and there.

Nice and cool(er) this morning, low 70's. Ran at the Y and felt a little bit faster from the start. Incorporated 3 intervals around .5 to .6 each. I think this is first run under 8:00 avg in a while.

Neighborhood run. Getting up just a little bit earlier so was able to get over 5 miles. Cooler temperatures again this morning, nice.

5:30 run at Longleaf with the Striders. Easy paced warm up until the water stop (3.1 miles), then did 4 mile tempo run with splits: 6:56, 6:57, 6:57, 6:48
Goal was to get under 7:00 for the tempo miles, which I did but it was very hard, but I did do it. Probably would not have if I didn't set a goal this time. Good to know I can still go faster when I want to but also shows I'm a bit off from where I was. Time to fix that.
Weatherwise, it was wonderful. Talked to several friends after the run. I think I could try to hang on with them next time and it should hopefully be easier.

Nbhd run, great weather again today. Woke up the boys before I ran so I didn't have to rush back quite as quick so I started just a little bit later. Still battling sluggish starts, but I do get warmed up eventually so guess I shouldn't try and battle it.

Started out at Longleaf a bit after 6:00. Was supposed to meet Joe at 6:00 but he was running late. I did however see Jamie and the group she was running with, so ran with them for a bit (to Diane's and then back to Starkey Blvd).
Ran to the park, visited briefly with the group hanging out at the shelter and then back to Longleaf.
After the first 7 miles I was at a 9:10 average. The rest of the miles were faster and ended up with 8:43 average with 2 of the last miles in the 7:30's.
Weather was good, but a little warmer than yesterday but overcast kept the sun off of me.
