Short-Term Running Goals:

2023 GOALS:

Coastal Delaware Running Festival Marathon - 4/16/23 - Rehoboth Beach, Delaware

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)

3.5 miles. Hood Route. 26:42. 7:37 pace. Last mile -7:10. 9:15 am start time. 90 Deg., 62% hum. 75 DP.

1:15 pm. (after church and lunch) 2 miles with Tommy. He says he wants to run a 5k with me. I told him we'd talk about signing him up after he could run 2 miles without stopping. today was his 2nd attempt at the distance. We did 2 miles today through the trails by the soccer fields. He stopped for a drink once, Stopped to pee once (and MAN did he have to go!), and stopped for a very short time, after he tripped over a root. Anyhow, he did WAY better than I expected.

Track-form-fixing workout. 2:15 pm start. 2 mile up. 2x200 @ 75% w/ 200 AR. 2x100 @ >75% w/ 100 AR.

Then the sun destroyed me, and I stopped. That's enough for today.
