Logged (on computer) 24,901 miles (circumference of the earth) in 5,744 days (11/20/25) Short-Term Running Goals: 2024 GOALS:
to not get fat Long-Term Running Goals: Continue running as often as I can, as far as I can, as fast as I can. Teaching my kids (by example) the rewards that come from putting in the work. Very slowly get to 50 states. Personal: I'm married, with two sons, 19, and 20. And as of January 18, 2025, one grandson.
I started running because someone dared me to.
I ran my first race 3 days after my 40th birthday. (Disney)

| 3 on the trails. And just like that, I'm back in a running funk.
This weekly cycle of seeing the grandson on the weekends is kind of emotionally draining on Sunday nights. I get so melancholy when he's gone. Spouse and I are going to see Song Sung Blue tonight. My mom loves Neil Diamond, so I grew up listening to a lot of his stuff. It should be an excellent distraction from my usual Sunday night sadness.
That movie was excellent. Kate Hudson nailed the Wisconsin accent.

I know it was designed with good marketing intentions, and was sent to me by a bot, but there is something weird about getting a Happy Birthday text from your Urologist's office.

| 4 on the trails. Late run start because I had to wait for AC maintenance guy to show up, and do whatever it is I'm paying him for every six months. Spouse says "This guy looks really old. Should he be climbing up into our attic?" I asked her how old does she think he is? She said seventy something. So after he was done, I asked him how old he was. He's 2 years older than me.

| Nice 1st birthday party for my grandson.
Later we saw Southern Culture on the Skids at Skipper's Smokehouse in Tampa. It was a really good show. Kind of like a cross between The Reverend Horton Heat, Primus, Toadies, B52's, and maybe Stray Cats?

| 3 on the trails. It felt pretty quick this evening. I saw my neighbors (That are training for the Gasparilla 15k) out there, several times.
At the end of this month, it will be 10 years since I ran a 5k.

| Something different today. I've been meaning to try this run for a while. 2 miles to the track. (4) x 200m, with 200m AR, 2 miles home. Running with effort was much harder than I expected. But on the other hand, it has been almost 3 years. I had to start somewhere.
