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

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.

It rained all day but it stopped right before I had to leave work to run home. Pretty uneventful trip home.

Morning run: Got out at 5:05am . 1/2 mile in I realized I forgot my bottle and Gu so I turned around. Listened to This American Life and Running Times podcast. When I got close to 3M, the train was blocking State Docks Road. I turned into Cargills road and did strides back and forth and also ran up the hill into the woods. 20 minutes or so later the train started back up and I was able to get across. Wasn't planning on the extra miles but they felt good.

Return trip home was uneventful. I wasn't able to leave work until 4:15pm so it got dark halfway home. Tired. Went to bed early (8:45pm)

Brisk (45F) and windy this morning. Should have worn gloves. Listened to the Savage Love and Planet Money podcasts on the way. Glad to get through my big mileage push. Feel confident about the Dizzy 50K now.
