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.

Up at 4am..... not to run, but to go to Henrys Lake for some fall fishing. Fishing was slow..... one thing though, we were pumping up the pontoon boats and all three of my friends were so tired that I ended up pumping all three pontoon boats up. Fat fisherman! They had a steady diet of Snickers and licorice whips and Mountain Dew at 5am. Ughhh! Got home at 5pm and wanted to take a nap but went out for a 6 mile run.Weather was perfect. 70 degrees and a breeze out of the S. 8:20 avg pace

I didn't get tired pumping up the boats....... did strain my neck and shoulder. I can hardly move my left side.

66 degrees and no wind, and it was light outside when I started at 5am. Okay, I was on the treadmill this morning. We put it together last night and my kids got first dibs on it. So I thought I had better give it go this morning. The ifit is a nice feature and I plugged in my running route up sunnyside and down scenic dr and home. It adjusted to the elevation changes. avg pace 8:10

Interesting day! It started out raining and by noon it was a nasty snow storm. I'm guessing that it snowed a good couple of inches today and its still snowing. Didn't know that I would be reaping the benefits of my new purchase so soon. Ran ten miles in Yellowstone National Park this afternoon. Traffic was light and didn't see any animals to speak of. Ha HA! 10 miles @ 8:20

Snow is melting today. I believe that we received about 5 inches between yesterday and this morning. Glad it's over! Ran up Sunnyside and down Scenic drive. Avg pace for the run 8:15 The last 5 miles avg pace 7:35 per mile.Wore my heart rate monitor this run to see how my hr was doing. I was around 155 to 162 during the last 5 so I do have some room to improve. Pleased overall. I did take a fall at work and took a bunch of skin off my shin. The run loosened up the aches though.

Nice day today! Low 50's and blue sky. It looks like all the snow is gone! Sheridan skipped out on me today so I ran alone as usual. 10 miles at avg pace of 8:15. Missed a day this week, other than that I am pleased with the week. The main thing is that I have no running injuries.
