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

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

1 mile warmup and then 10 quarter miles @ 6:35 pace with a quarter mile recovery between them. Just easing into some speed work. Good effort for me. Wife and son went to choir practice and I had to do something.......btw....treadmill run. Cold front came through and its pretty nasty outside.

10 miles in the evening. Avg pace 8:18 for the run. Felt good today. If I had the time I felt like I could have ran another 5 or so no problem. Making some gains......

10 easy miles at a avg pace of 8:35. Lower back is a bit sore the last couple of days. The run helped the tightness.

1 warmup and 11 800m @  3:30. 1 minute cooldown between each interval. Nothing too crazy but a good effort. Another month or two hopefully I can run these in 3:10ish....thats the goal anyway,

Late night run. Had a campout with the some of the youth in our area and didn't get a whole lot of sleep last night. My legs didn't feel very chipper this evening. It was a sporadic week of running. 5 days scattered throughout the week. I was shooting for 6 but had a couple of busy days that I just couldn't fit a run in. Overall mileage is about what I hoped for. A couple of weeks in the mid 40's and then be in the 50mpw range......no injuries.

The treadmill is saving me in November. I did go for a quick walk outside and enjoyed the crunch of the snow.

Had some extra time today. Wife and son are out and about and I decided to do a 5 mile mp effort. Went good and legs feel great. I ran more than I was scheduled to do this week.

Prgressive run this afternoon on the tm. Trying to get a few quick miles in at the start of the week. I didn't have a real disciplined week of running. Junk miles for the most part. All good though! Having fun.

1mile warmup followed with 9 800@3:20-3:30 with 400 m in between. Lost count of the 800's...... Probably could have run a couple more. Good workout for me.

Had a good run this evening. Had nothing planned so I just started out easy and finished up at 7:50 pace. Real slow progression to hat pace. I started out at 8:45 and slowly finished the run.
