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.

All excited about RLRF...... I am going to start monday and give it a whirl. My entries will be more detailed and that means everyone will know how slow I really am. Today I ran 6 x 800 repeats at 3:20 with a 400 recovery in between. Felt good today. Some of the workouts in the book look a bit intimidating to me.....

Okay...I think I'm in... I'll start over with the 3:15:00 training schedule. :-)

Your a stud Preston, the 800 repeats on that schedule scare me! I was thinking about whimnping out and doing the 3:25??? I guess peer pressure will dominate here....I'll go with you on that 3:15

RLRF looked like it would kill me when I started to read that book. You are both studs...I couldn't do it. Just reminded me I will have a lot more room in my library when I get rid of all of my running books. I don't think I can look at them and not feel sad. They are going to the library.
