Long-Term Running Goals:

Maintain my health and continuosly seek to improve my fitness. Maybe someday get under 3:00 for marathon. More importantly, I'd like to figure out what my maximum ability is and reach that.

Would like to complete ultra marathon some day also as well as a triathlon. I'd mention Badwater but that might get some people close to me worried :)

I've made a list of marathons around the country and world that I'd like to complete (there are 18 so far)

Personal:

Married with two kids. Our whole family trys to stay active. My kids have done great in Tae Kwon Do along with my wife who has her black belt. She is a very healthy cook and has recently been cooking lots of vegan and vegetarian recipes.

Cold outside this morning, high 30's and some wind.

So, I did some running inside to get warmed out before heading outside to get at least a few miles on the road. 4.2 miles on the treadmill at the Y at about an 8:00 pace. The pace felt extra easy so I might have been on one of those alleged "easy" treadmills. But whatever the case, an easy run that feels easy - I'll take it. Then headed outside where it had warmed up a few degrees. Ran 3.91 miles at an average 7:45 pace.

Finished off with a few sets of weights inside.

New Balance 825 Miles: 8.11

That is dang cold for Florida. What the heck is going on out there. I'm not sure we have seen the 30s in Vegas yet....close, but not quite.

I don't know where that cold snap came from but I think it is gone now. We usually don't get anything like that until January.
