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(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose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

Just a short and easy recovery run. Tight in a few spots but pretty good overall considering Saturday's run. The first run after a big run where I think I might have overdone it always feels like the real test. I think I passed this one. P.M. - did Jenny's boot camp, felt even better than on the morning run. Class was indoors for the most part, so after the warm up routine outside we did strength circuits using some of the equipment. For cardio we did jump rope tabatas.

Short and sweet run with Jenny , Lisa R. , Kathryn L. and Chris H. Legs felt a bit better today than yesterday. I think I'll definitely be ok. I'll add a little bit more on for tomorrow's run.

Nice run with my brother Jim on the neighborhood t-route. Good weather,
short sleeve shirt and hat, felt great especially once warmed up. This was his longest run in a while due to work constraints, weather and a knee. So, it was great to get a chance to run with him this morning. He's just here for a couple of days before heading over to Disney and then for a short cruise. He's down here with the family escaping the Rochester cold weather.
He's
also signed up for tonight's boot camp!! P.M. - went to boot camp class with my brother, included in the hour workout was about 1 mile of running (a warm up lap, then 3 laps during the cardio portion where we ran a lap and then did 50 jump ropes, repeated three times).

Ran with Jenny (for about the first 2 miles) and Chris H. for the reset of it. A bit chilly, but I'm not complaining! It's actually quite nice once you get warmed up. It's best to be a little bit cold when starting out, then you end up feeling perfect after 1 or 2 miles. Right hip flexor was bothering me slightly towards the end of the run. I think it is getting better. Definitely needs some more strengthening before the 50K race in January and a good deal more before the 100K race in February (assuming I actually do it). Although, the 100K race will be on a pretty flat course (old railroad bed, about 4 miles paved).

Ran loop plus classic t-route by golf course. Ran by myself. Was looking forward to running with some others, but the time running alone ended up being nice.
First mile was
10:41, last was 7:31. Overdressed, overheated at first, shed one shirt
and the hat then felt better. Right hip flexor felt improved today.
Year is quickly winding down. Contemplating the past year and looking forward to the new year.

with Claude, starting out at Longleaf. Stopped at Craig and Diane's house, then
they ran with us into the park. Started out at an easy pace.(9:30 , then 9:00 for next couple miles)
Picked up
the last two miles (7:16 and 7:20) No overheating today with a chilly fog that made it
perfect for running. Spent a little time at social hour then Michelle
gave us a ride back to Longleaf.
