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

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.

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.

Ran to work this morning with temps around 63 degrees. About half way there, I noticed I was being followed by a young high school runner. He was gaining on me and something kicked in! I picked it up a bit knowing that I haven't ran anything fast for such a long time, thinking that I might crash. I was mistaken! I dropped the kid and finished off the run feeling pretty darn good for a change. Hopefully the rest of the week will be like today.

Fantastic, the legs are still there! I think you should assume he was varsity.

I think you should assume he was state champ.

I believe that he has signed a letter of intent to run for Oregon University.

Awesome, it must have been very satisfying to drop him like that. Young punk will think twice next time!
