Running Accomplishments:

Completed 9 marathons with mixed results. 3:38 being the best out of the 9. It's been several years since I have participated in a marathon. Priorities and health have played a roll with racing the last few years. Hoping to get out and participate and have some fun.

Short-Term Running Goals:

Really want to race again. 5k's to the marathon. Love to qualify to run Boston at some point.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running and family balanced and be as fit as I can so I can run and play with the family.

Personal:

Happily married for some time......5 great kids that overachieve in whatever they choose to do.

Blog titile explanation: Been diagnosed with a brain tumor late 2013. With my lack of confidence in the medical field and just not feeling good about it......I will be running with my friend, "Tiny Tim" until further notice.

Stomach still not up to much. Felt uncomfortable for most of the run. Considered stopping at 15 or so but decided to push through. I'm finished! Well, for this week.

Good 20!! They're never easy and it looks like you handled it well.

Good run Rye! Another week down. Looks like you might have some hills where you run. I think you are doing great on this program. Give it another 4 weeks and I think you'll begin to really have some confidence! See you on the track Monday :-)

Oh, check the math on the overall pace, I think there is something wrong.

Crhudman .... It's been a long time since I ran 20 miles!!! I think the ultimate frisbee on Friday slowed me down today. I did run some you've kids in the ground :)

IJR... Yes there are a few hills and I ran them:) the foothills on the east side of town is just a couple of miles from my house. It's a nice loop that I ran, but I sure started to feel it after mild 15. Bring on the intervals:)

Great run at a very solid pace.

Nice 20! I thought the RL stood for "run less??"
