* = These 5 races were run at 67.9 seconds per pound. If I want a PR, I need to weigh less than 170 pounds. 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, 18, and 19.
I started running because someone dared me to.
I ran my first race 3 days after my 40th birthday. (Disney)

| Ringling. Untimed. 5:45 start. Talked to Jury Duty Buddy for a while.
Hip is still a nagging concern. But, on the upside, it is only a problem while my right foot touches the ground. So if I can avoid that, I should be cool.
The other ailments that came around this weekend are clearing up.

| 7.5 miles. Hood route to Legacy Trail and back. 4:20 pm start. 1:00:59. 8:08 pace. Last mile 7:41. 88 deg. 66% hum 75 d.p. Despite the less than ideal conditions, and the hip still feeling a bit off, there were moments of this run that were surprisingly enjoyable. Go figure.
No MOJO yet, but it may be within sight.

I figured he was going to try to catch me on the uphill, so I kicked it up a bit. He never passed me, and honestly, I don't know if he was trying to. Not today, SBVD, Not today!

| 4.6 miles. Ringling Bridge. 35:55. 7:48 pace. 5:45 pm start. 91 deg. 64% hum. 77 d.p. Good pace on the way out, slowed up on the way back. On the way out, I passed a guy I have seen at some local races. As I went by, he said to the person running with him in a really loud voice "Sometimes, I just like to take it easy, and jog." Maybe that was for my benefit, maybe not. It still made me laugh. Big rain with wind on the 2nd half of the run. I had to keep my sunglasses on to keep the rain from hitting my eyes. I'm sure I looked like a doofus, running in the pouing rain with sunglasses.

| 7.5 miles. Hood Route to Legacy Trail. 1:04:32. 8:36 pace. 77 deg. 100% hum. 77 d.p. They had the Venice Sprint Triathlon yesterday. The boys would like to do this as a relay next year, and they seem fairly serious about training. I'm all for it, but my biggest concern is the bike. They have bmx bikes made for kids. And people in the race are going way faster than my son, which also could be dangerous. Anyhow, this kind of thinking was going through my head this morning on the run, and I barely noticed I was running.
