* = 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, 17, and 18.

I started running because someone dared me to.

I ran my first race 3 days after my 40th birthday. (Disney)

10.2 miles. Hood route to Legacy trail to colonia and back. 7 am start. The run felt remarkably smooth. Good day for wildlife spotting. The goat farm on Edmondson road, which is one of the foulest smells you can encounter, had BABY GOATS today. So I toughed out the smell because they were so stinking cute! Also, about a mile later, I stopped to watch some otters swim.

7.5 miles. Hood route to legacy trail and back. I played soccer for 1 hour yesterday. Today the legs hurt much more than yesterday. Hopefully, I have enough kick to bring back Tempo Tuesday tomorrow.

Sunset Run with Boy #2. His idea. We ran over the Circus Bridge to Casperen Beach and Back. It was pretty awesome. To have a kid that shows an interest in distance running? Whoa!

6:45 am start. Holy bad run Batman! After 2 barely made it bathroon stops it was time to turn around. And, by the way, are homeless dudes REQUIRED to smoke in public restrooms?
