Personal:

I used to run competitively, and maybe I will do so again someday.  Right now I am primarily running to try and get in better shape, and to maintain both physical and emotional health, but also for the simple joy that comes when I run.

I am also the proud daddy of five little ones.  I love the opportunity that I have to be a daddy, and my challenge is to balance my family responsibilities with work and running.

I ran to school this morning getting in 3 miles as I ran the long way.  I then ran 7 miles in the evening, running home from school and adding extra mileage

I ran 3 miles to school in the morning, ran another 3 miles before Anita's dance class in the evening, and then followed it up with an extra 4 miles after the class was finished.  The 3 miles before the class was time limited so I ran it in about 17:20.

I only ran 4.5 miles today because I didn't feel very good.  I think I am getting sick with something.  I did run a mile and a half hard because I had to get home quickly and I had limited time, but I probably shouldn't have.

I ran 10 miles this evening in 1:23:xx.  I ran so slow because I didn't feel very good and I was trying to run more slowly so that I could run a little farther.  It was probably too much, in fact the 8.5 miles yesterday evening was probably too much considering that I slept about 12 hours last night and I still felt like my legs were not rested.
