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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose life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 about 4.5 miles with my son Andy who has recently joined the track team and needed some easy miles this morning. It was great running with him. I'm hoping that after a season of track with structured workouts he'll be able to smoke me in a 5k.

Ran at Longleaf/Starkey Blvd with the Striders. Went out easy, declined doing intervals with Dixie and Anthony. Caught up to Jorge just inside Aristide nbhd and ran with him. He wanted 8 miles so we continued far enough then turned around. Mostly a steady pickup with first mile at 10:07 and last two at 8:16. Back to being warm again. Said hi to Jenny and her dog NiKYO. Then, quick breakfast with Dixie and Anthony at McD's and brought home cinnamon melts for the boys.

Ran with Joe and Jamie in the nbhd. Good to have my running buddies back. Joe was on extended post marathon break and Jamie has been traveling a bit. Easy conversation pace. Weather was warm and humid again, but kinda nice.
Noted the sort of odd (but in a beautiful way) color sky just before the sun came up.

Christmas Eve morning run with the Striders. Kind of like a regular run but start at 7:00 instead of earlier and people bring lots of goodies for afterwards. I showed up a few minutes late so picked up the pace trying to catch up with my friends. Eventually found Joe and Jamie at the water stop at about 2.7 miles. Ran out to 3.5 miles and then turned around. Air felt soupy on the way back but turned nice after getting back and feeling a light breeze. Caught up with several people I hadn't seen for a while.

Christmas morning run (almost afternoon). Ran out to Trinity Blvd, along the grassy shoulder, a bit past Little Rd before turning around and coming back through via Robert Trent Jones Pkwy with a stop at the fountain. Got back to my house, saw the boys weren't here yet so ran to the end of the street and around the corner, headed back to the house but this time my truck was in the driveway. Now, time to relax a bit with the boys before my parents head over at 4:00 for dinner.
Merry Christmas Everyone!

Ran with Cynthia and Jamie from Longleaf to Diane's house then in and out of Starkey Park and then straight back to Longleaf. Coolish temperatures (much nicer than Thursday), but still a little bit humid. Had coffee at Havanah Dreamers with a few of the other runners, headed home and then decided to run two more miles around the neighborhood loop.
