Personal:

Born 1972 in north central Wisconsin

Married for 11 yrs to very supportive non-running wife. Two children : Fiona, 6 (in picture) and Elliott (2 yrs)

Co-Race Director of Delano Park 12 Hour Run (www.delano12.com). President of River City Runners (www.rivercityrunners.org)

3 cats and 1 dog (chocolate lab)

In high school, I was an slightly overweight , badly asthmatic J.V. cross country runner. I enjoyed being part of the team but never excelled. The summer after my freshman year in college I decided to run a marathon. 6 weeks later I ran a 3:11 at Grandma's Marathon in Duluth (1991) and I was hooked on long distance running where my asthma wasn't as much of a factor.

Good to get back running again. Two days of River City Run work and a nice Easter Sunday. 3 days rest.

ran at work and felt extra peppy. First mile was 7:38 and then I did a 6:15 which felt great. Did a cooldown lap and then another faster one (5:56). I've purposely been avoiding speed work to keep from staying injured. Days like this and an upcoming 10K in May is about as close as I'm going to get to fast stuff until after the run across alabama for Elliott.

To work and back. Felt great in the morning- after warmup stayed around 7:30 pace and did a few miles a little faster. Great weather - 48F or so.

A little fatigued on the return trip- maybe from fast run yesterday and this morning. Got back safe and sound with no apparent injuries so i'm happy with the effort.

Nice easy morning run. Low 50's. Very peaceful. 8:45/mile pace.

Did the return trip at a around 8:00 pace. Comfortable but I wasn't especially peppy today. i'll hit it again tomorrow AM.

This was my "get-in-all-the-miles you can and be home by 8am" long run. Went well. Ran almost all of it at Delano. Saw Heather, Shawn, and crew doing their last 10 miler before the Country Music Marathon.

The good thing about running on a loop is you get a chance to pick things up that you drop. The same packet of Lime-flavored Gu fell out of my waist pack twice and I found it the next lap around.
