Running Accomplishments:

Completed 9 marathons with mixed results. 3:38 being the best out of the 9. It's been several years since I have participated in a marathon. Priorities and health have played a roll with racing the last few years. Hoping to get out and participate and have some fun.

Short-Term Running Goals:

Really want to race again. 5k's to the marathon. Love to qualify to run Boston at some point.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running and family balanced and be as fit as I can so I can run and play with the family.

Personal:

Happily married for some time......5 great kids that overachieve in whatever they choose to do.

Blog titile explanation: Been diagnosed with a brain tumor late 2013. With my lack of confidence in the medical field and just not feeling good about it......I will be running with my friend, "Tiny Tim" until further notice.

23 degrees and a cool breeze from the south this morning. Ran to work and when I arrived the boiler was down so there was no hot water...... Needless to say I showered and smelled okay. I'm still chilled at this hour....... Look forward to the run home...... maybe the hot shower too. 6 miles at 7:55 pace.

Ahhh! The hot shower felt so good. 6 miles home at 8:05. 25 degrees and very windy or breezy whichever you prefer. Don't know if I'm going to run back and forth from work the rest of the week unless it warms up.

A cold shower in the middle of winter? What will they think of next. Way to hang in there.

23 degree breeze is not "cool." It's painfully COLD! Hope you got that warm shower.

I wouldn't...but I'm a wimp!

You're putting up some good miles.

Have you had any more thoughts about Ft Worth?
