human race 09 5k pr 20:50 Short-Term Running Goals: This year I am looking to race a bit more and hope to improve. I have started to train a bit differently using a more well rounded program. Including tempo and speed work (which up to this point I have slacked off on) Would like to be somewhere near the top of my A.G. it makes racing more fun.Also helping motivate people to become more active and enjoy getting out and enjoying all life has to offer.
Long-Term Running Goals: have not really set long term goals just love the great benefits physically as well as mentally that have come with running and look to continue to grow and improve
Personal: Married to an amazing woman who I get to enjoy living and loving life for all its worth. From our urban farm to exploring the backcountry. I have 2 boys who are about grown. My passion for running has not diminished over the years just evolved into an integral part of life like it always has been but a little different. Lucky for me Tiff puts up with my running obsession and doesn't complain too much. |

| | what an amazing day running set out to try average distance ,ended up on a new route at just a shade under 16 mi really had no idea how to pace it just went and put body on auto to pace its self and let my mind wander here and there like two hours of meditative therapy finished feeling euphoric maybe just the endorphines but my mind feels so clear and clean too :) |

| | Got to love sunday the miles just seem to unwind in front of me set out un decided on just how far was going just knew i was out and on my way enjoying every minute get to mile 5 before making the decision to go the 106th south (just over 15 mi) route was feeling rather relaxed and fresh even after going 16 just yesterday very positive feed back from my body getting more confident (and a little faster ) all the time |

| | Cant decide weather it was gut check or geek check but almost 14 mi in the rain and wind just because i would rather run outside not too cold but plenty pruned up from being soaked through still got some prep in for racing in poor weather all in all a good night |

| | a nice relaxing pace tonight didn't push too hard it was such an awesome night out wanted to enjoy the clear weather got a little carried away mileage wise but been doing that a lot lately guess there are lots worse things and after mondays running in the rain it was a lot more enjoyable ha ha |

| | yet another great night for running wish i did not have to layer up quite as much maybe it will just add to my speed once it warms up a bit :) not having the extra weight and bulk other than that simply great times |

| | took tonight to get some slower pace mileage in feeling that helps my core training almost as much as faster pace plus work on stride and body coordination getting everything to sync and move together with better balance |

| | nice quiet serene night for a little run to stretch out and keep it loose the quiet falling snow made it all that much more enjoyable |

| | Running on the indoor track while trav has baseball practice was very different took the opportunity to try some faster pace miles since I was not all layered up was very surprised able to hold a great pace feeling very good training is really paying off |

| | kind of a hectic day had to get up and head to work first thing instead of getting my run in early ,came back to spend a little more time with the boys before had to take them back . Any way didn't get to running until 3:40 finally got my I phone to log a workout for a change lol a little sluggish start but after about mile 3 started to get back into the rythm and the rest went very nicely ,hurried and showered before leaving for bowling still with tired legs but feel great after all :) |

| | A little slow going today a 12 hour work day can wear on a person but still so fulfilling to get out under the moonlight and let the mind and body roll through all the thoughts of the day like a meditative trance helping me to just be ... |

| | was not feeling up to much today fighting off a bit of the creepin crud i think anyway almost took the night off but knew i would not feel any better if i did you know sweat out some of the toxins lol so decided to just stay in on the treadmill for a change ended up being a fairly decent work out now hopefully i can get some sleep been restless at night not sure why hoping things settle down soon if not just have to get to bed earlier :) |

race this morning felt good going out although a little tentative but going to try to leave it out there hit mile one feeling good stepping up the pace mile 1.5 a little faster yet 2 mile mark striding out keeping the breathing deep and trying not to chop 2.5 mi time to give it what i had left passing a few more runners sprinting it out finish 20.32 new PR very pleased only thing thinking need to work on the first part get it faster but happy with my run over all
after giving myself a few hours to recover from the 5k went out this afternoon for 13.25 moderate pace miles thought the run this morning would slow me down more than it did but kept an even decent pace thru the whole run although the last 3.5 mi started feeling the fatigue creeping in over all an amazing day!!!!!! really pleased with all i was able to do thanks to my training motivates me to keep putting it in

| | turned out to be a great day for a nice long run ground was wet when i was leaving with a mostly overcast set out with a longer strides and keeping a good solid pace through the whole run pushing down and back up the river bottom hills and up to 7th east turning north toward 114th south running through the construction was actually nice running on hard packed dirt instead of concrete continued to 98th south turning west following down to where the trail is(150 e or so) turned back south winding through the park like surroundings back to 114th south everything feeling good striding at a good pace not too tired yet , mind unwinding while the body surges onward west to state street south to 123rd back west 4 mi left still not getting sloppy making sure to keep it all together back through the river bottoms (coming out the west side really wore me ) back to 27th west north to 12100 s and walk in to warm down sun out to bolster my spirits even more yet another great day running :) |
