Short-Term Running Goals:
Sub 40:00 10K- 2:59 Marathon
- 1:25 Half Marathon

Long-Term Running Goals: Maintain my health and continuously 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.
I'd also like to find the right balance in life and use running to enhance and improve myself.
Personal: Dad of three (welcome Charlotte Dani on 8/10/20) awesome kids and stepdad to three almost as awesome as my own kids.
I have a brown dog named Stella, and three cats - Catty, Tortie, and Esperanza.
(old lines that were a little out of date but couldn't quite bring myself to removing them completely:) Also, have one wonderful brown dog named Sammy and just added a grey tiger cat (Catty) whose life started out rough but now has a better home.
I've recently started another blog so I can easily add lots of pictures and so other non-FRB users can leave comments:
Forward Progress!
Also, for 2012 I started a blog to write down each day one thing that I am grateful for
Grateful Blog
Love living in Florida but love to travel and see the country and rest of the world.

| Good run this morning over at Longleaf with the Striders at 5:30. Ran with David, Alex, Keisha, Nelson and a new guy, John. It was pretty dark this morning with no moon, but the stars sure were visible. When we got to the turn around point I decided to put my music on. My shuffle had been in my pocket and the cord got all tangled up. I fixed it but it took a while. When I got going again the group was way ahead of me and I tried to catch up, but didn't quite make it. Average pace: 8:01
Cut the run a little bit short since Jenny was heading out early. Did Inflict workout "The Anchor" again. I skipped the very last set of walking lunge presses because I slightly tweaked my left adductor (but nothing too terrible, just didn't want to strain it more). When I said I was skipping it, Jenny suggested I do squat presses instead, alright... :) Those didn't hurt. On the way to work, there was a car driving ten miles per hour below the speed limit a couple cars in front of me, it was so annoying. But this was actually a blessing. As I was getting near to the major intersection, there is a smaller side street which runs across the street I was on. A mini van pulled out very quickly to try and get across but did not see the large dump truck. I thought the van would make it across, but the truck plowed right into it. The mini van driver was ok (but very shaken), but some of the passengers did not look good at all. Several people had gotten out of their cars to help. I went over to make sure someone had a cellphone to call for help, but mainly stayed out of the way. Police and fire rescue showed up within minutes. Once I gave a short statement to the police I went on to work as there wasn't anything else I could have done to help. If the "annoyingly slow" driver had not slowed me down, I might have been involved in the accident, so slow drivers aren't so bad. I hope everyone is going to be ok.
