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  (old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Warm up out to Lisa's house, then ran one mile with Dylan then I saw Joe and ran with him about 4 miles. Felt pretty good this morning. Nice to do a shorter run today.

Ran with Beka, Jason, Jean, and Diane. Happened to start out with them (instead of my usual way behind) so ran 4 out of the 6 mile repeats that Jason had on his schedule, then did a 5th one on my own to get back to the Y. Quarter mile rest between, supposed to be at 6:52 pace, splits were: 6:39,6:49,6:49,6:43,6:35

Slightly abbreviated run in the neighborhodd this morning, but it felt pretty good knowing I didn't have far to go. A few rain sprinkles at the end.

Ran with Mike, Jason, Jean, Melanie and Beka on their easy day in Longleaf. Ankles a little tight at first but was feeling great at the end of the run.

Longleaf to Starky and back.

Good run with Cynthia, Jamie and Jamie. Started out with a loop in Longleaf, and made the two Jamie's back at the start by 6:00. Ran on the bike trail to the park, just a little bit inside and then back. Felt great today. Had coffee afterward with Cynthia and then stopped by Panera to see Keith, Dixie, Jammie, Greg, Victoria and Jorge for a bit.
