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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Ran with Melanie and Jean at Longleaf, 1 mile warm up, then 2x3 mile intervals (7:10 goal) with mile rest and cool down. First interval - 7:05,7:00,6:58, second interval - 7:08,6:59,6:35
Great to be able to get a good run before travelling for most of the week as well as having some wonderful training partners available for such runs!

Treadmill run, Garland TX
I didn't think I'd be able to stay on all 9 miles, but it seemed to go pretty quickly. It's not so bad now and then, better than missing a run!
Only two more treadmill runs to go.

Treadmill run, Garland TX, day 2 - tempo run
That was difficult! One mile warm up, then 6 miles in 39:54, followed by about 1.3 miles cool down. Not sure about splits since it was on a treadmill. I varied the speed a little bit but was mostly at 6:40, but would speed up a little now and then. Much easier to do this 1) on the road, and 2)with other people!

Treadmill run, Garland TX, day #3
Survived one more and final hotel treadmill run (for this trip) which once again was not that bad and actually went by pretty quickly.
Listened to music, varied the speed, and watched the little guy go around the track for entertainment.

Back home after three days - ran in the neighborhood. Got in late so a little extra sleep then an easy distance to start the day. Cool 49 degrees, long sleeve weather.
