* = 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)

Race: Venice Triathlon (3.11 Miles) 00:20:08, Place in age division: 4

I was the running leg of the Triathlon Relay. Out of the Relay teams, we had the fastest running time. It is very weird starting a race, when you don't know "when" you will start. You stand there waiting with the other relay runners, waiting for your bike to come in. You don't know when that will happen. There was a lot of fumbling with the ankle bracelet timepiece. I am pleased with getting a 20:08. This is a big improvement over my previous 5k. It was a lot of fun to do this race with friends, and although I don't see myself becoming a triathlete in the future, I would be willing to be on their relay team any time. Our team finished 4th, out of (I think) 13 teams.
