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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Out and back run down the Starkey Gap Trail then onto Keystone up to the point where it crosses the road where I turned back.

Ran with Joe and Cynthia. Met near Escape Brewery. Joe was a maybe (he's got a better than 50% chance of showing up when he's a maybe).
Hadn't run with Cynthia for a while and much longer since I got to run with both of them. It was great catching up and also a nice and easy relaxed feeling run but not so slow it felt like a slog.
Feeling holiday pressure and getting ready for trip tomorrow with weather throwing in some uncertainty

Power walk (with a little jogging here and there) out and back on the Starkey Gap trail.
Flight in the afternoon to Rochester. We almost didn't go due to travel concerns, but looking at the exact locations where we'd be, was pretty confident we'd be ok.

| At Jim's house in Webster. Morning started out drizzly and high 30's, and then exactly as forecast, turned to now at 9:45 am and temperature dropping under 30 and then dropped some more and then more snow fell. Drove by Webster park and then over to Irondequoit Bay outlet to Lake Ontario. Wind was really gusting. Went to Bill Gray's which was nearby. Kids had a snowball fight. Stopped by Jim's house for some more layers and then found a hill in Webster Park for sledding. Was there about an hour and a half. Everyone had fun. Baby got a little cold so I took her back to car to warm up a bit before heading back out for a little more.
Brian and Kelly made it back from Albany. We all went out to eat at a place in Rochester called Szechuan Opera (was trying to get to Jine's next door but it closed just before we got there).
I spent part of day trying to figure out how we'd get to NYC. 5:45 am Saturday train was cancelled. There was a Friday 2:00 pm train but before we could decide, that one sold out. Then all Saturday trains were canceled. Looks like we might be driving.

| Drive from Rochester NY to Newark NJ. Two trains cancelled and tried to book a flight which was canceled, so kept the rental car and drove. Not sure what conditions we would hit, but roads were mostly clear, not busy and once we passed Scranton area, roads were even easier. Dropped the car and was able to get an Uber direct to hotel.
Had a good time walking around, Bryant Park for hot chocolate, walk through times square and tried to go to Ellen's Stardust diner but line was long and we wanted to go inside, so Applebee's it was and of course I had to get the bourbon street steak. Got a chocolate meltdown dessert to share which came with a rendition of happy birthday to the tune of "Land of a Thousand Dances".
Swung by Rockefeller Center to see the big tree and then Radio City Music Hall for the Christmas Show.
