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.
six miles at lunch around the greenbelt on a very cool breezy afternoon. Mid 30's and lots of wet snow and ice along the greenbelt.
Pro Grid 2 A Miles: 6.00

Question from a southerner...do the roads stay snowy and icy all winter making it tough to get traction while running, or does it get plowed and/or melt on the streets/sidewalks where you run? Last year we had a couple days where we actually got 4 inches of snow but the roads were OK to run on after a few hours. Wondering what it's like in Idaho.

During these early storms the roads can be wet and icy for a few days. Normaly after a winter storm passes through it is cold ( 32 or below ) for a few days. November and December storms are like this and we can still get runs in without jeopardizing our health. (broken bones, concussions, humiliation etc...) Jan to the first of March .... you take all the risks ..... Snow and ice along the the road and pathways. If you are dedicated runner in eastern Idaho, it is either the treadmill (&$!/&!$ ) or slip slide and away! Depends on how smart you are and I am not that bright.

Sounds dangerous.. Can't say what I would do, but I'm definitely not that bright either!
