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.

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.

10 treadmill miles this morning. It was a nice morning, but I had to many obligations after work, so I got my run in before the day got away from me. Legs felt pretty fresh this morning. Didn't have a great running last week but I had fun and I am not going to beat myself up over it! This is suppose to be fun....right.Avg pace for the run @ 8:20

Up at 3am to head to work this morning. Went home at noon and went for a run up sunnyside road. Nice temps today around 50 degrees and very little wind. I'm starting to feel like I'm a runner again after my injury filled summer. Think I'll start throwing in some tempo runs during the next couple of weeks and see if I can get my speed up. Legs feel fresh and ready to roll.

One mile warmup and then off for a interval workout. 1/2 mile repeats followed by 1/2 mile easy running. Good workout to get back a little speed. It's going to be a work in progress. 1/2 mile repeats were at a 7:00 pace. Need to start slowly..... still a bit concerned over another injury. Legs still feel good. Great weather today in Idaho.... no wind and sun!

Nothing was going on at home so I did a hill workout on the treadmill. Just 2.25 miles. Nothing special, just getting in a few more miles.

Nice afternoon..... temps in the 50's with just a slight breeze. Wish that these conditions could last forever. 1 mile warm up and then the next 5 @ 7:20 pace. 2 miles cool down. Avg 8:15 for the entire run.
