Sub 2:19:00 marathon 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. |

| Today's run was super slow. The trail was wet, and the water was semi-frozen, which made for very slippery conditions even though there was no visible ice. Total time of about 1:27:xx for 10.2 miles |

| I ran from my house so that I could make it back in time to get to work. The trail was still super slippery, but not as bad as yesterday. 1:24:30ish for 10.1 miles. |

| Just under 1:21:00 for 10.1 miles this morning. I am feeling better than I have in a while from a health perspective (both from being sick and from knee and foot problems), but I decided to hold off on running any doubles this week so that I can study a little more for the GRE, which I take on Monday. |

| I slept in this morning because I have been getting less sleep lately due to GRE study. In the afternoon, Kimia was feeling sick and she begged me to stay at home with her. I told her that I would stay with her until she fell asleep (she went to bed around 6:30) thinking that I would have plenty of time to run after she was asleep. However, she didn't fall asleep for good until after 9:00 and by then it was too late. All of this makes up for a pretty pathetic start to my running in the new year. Maybe this will teach me to get to bed on time so that I can get my run finished in the morning before life gets in the way at night.

| It snowed during the night, so today's run was slow again. However, snow is less slippery than slush, so we were still able to make decent time for the run. 1:57:12 for 15.2 miles. I ran hard for about 5 seconds at one point to see how slippery the snow was, and it wasn't too bad. Later on we ran a 400 hard and I finished in 79 seconds. The effort was probably worth about 10 seconds faster. |
