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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Felt good after getting that first mile done. Looping in Westlake Village, big 20 mile run coming up on Saturday.

Big 20 mile run with goals of suggested 8:15 pace for average and 0 stops (almost made the second goal but did have one quick stop which if I had kept the clock running I'd still have 8:13 pace).
Warm up mile in Westlake Village, then into 8:30ish pace for next 4 miles, leaving WLV, right on Alderman and left on Belcher running towards Klosterman.
Then Klosterman to Pinellas trail south, turning right on Alt 19 and heading toward Curlew, avoiding crossing the street at Curlew. Out onto the causeway but the pedestrian path is closed at the bridge, so turned back there, back up Pinellas Trail, exiting at Delaware Ave and heading back toward WLV where I finished up the remaining couple of miles.
Mile 9 was right at 8:00 pace but I wasn't looking at the pace at the time. Last 10 miles the average pace was around 7:56.
I've had some encouraging signs recently on long runs where I'm able to pick up the last third or even the second half.
