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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

I was hanging out, watching baby as she played in her house. I got on the mini-tramp to do some jumping then decided to turn on my watch to "indoor running" mode and jogged in place. It was kind of like using a treadmill but a little bouncier.

Southbound down the Starkey Gap trail and then turned around. Last run of the month, managing just over 100 miles.
After the run I realized foot felt absolutely no pain, and then no repurcussions after the run.
Time to get training again, that 100 miler in January isn't going to run itself.

Ran one loop inside WLV for 3.12 miles, then did a few random length strides for a total of another 0.42 miles.
5k coming up this weekend and this will have to pass for speedwork.

Sort of a run - started out with intention of walking and maybe throw in a few 30 second bursts of running here and there to prop up the overal pace. Although mostly walking ended up being near a running pace.
Southbound down Starkey Gap Trail and then back to Trinity Blvd trailhead.
In the evening took Andy out for his birthday. Jessica, baby, and I met him at Craft Street. I had a really good grilled cheese with shaved rib eye. Andy had "walk the flank" steak.
His mom took him out last night as she'd be out of town for his actual birthday and Tom celebrated with them that night.

Similar route to yesterday but went farther south. First mile 9:09 and last mile 7:40.
Since yesterday was nearly a running pace, it's now almost like 3 days in a row of running.
I had noticed after the run on Monday it was the first time where I felt no issues with my foot either before or after.

First double digit run since that 10 miler on the Monday before my foot started acting up. Was planning on 6, but then Daisy texted looking for company for her 20 miler run so I agreed to second half of her run starting at 6:45. I figured I'd be ok as long as we kept it slow.
Although I'm signed up for 5k tomorrow, with my reduced training this past month I don't have high expectations for tomorrow, so I'm not going to worry about running 10 miles today.
This morning's run was a bit overcast which was perfect. First few miles were with the group that Daisy ran part of her first 10 miles with.
So, overall the 10 miles went pretty well. If I stick to slow enough training hopefully get enough training miles for the 100 miler in January and maybe even get that elusive sub 24 hour time.
In the afternoon, went to friend of A's Bat Mitzvah, with party just after the service and everything wrapped up and back home by 5:00 which worked out as far as not being out late before a race.
