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 was going to go out with Sasha and Ted in the morning but they forgot to tell me that they decided to meet an hour later than normal, so I ran on my own. There was a lot of new snow on the ground so it was kind of nice to run in fresh snow instead of the packed stuff that I have gotten used to.

I was going to do 4 miles but I was really busy all day so I finally forced myself away from my work at about 9pm to get in a quick 3 miles. I kept the pace at about 7:30 throughout.

I was really tired this morning because I did not get enough sleep last night. I ran with Sasha and Ted and it was a little cold, but not too bad. My hip is acting up again. It is not painful yet but I better make sure that I do my stretches and everything correctly so that I can keep building mileage without getting hurt. I also need to make sure that I sleep more.

I ran easy with Sasha and Ted in the morning. Nothing spectacular. We just kept it nice and slow.

I kept the pace fairly quick. I was able to time one mile on my way home and it was 6:18. That is good since there was still snow on the ground and I didn't feel like I was killing myself to run a 6:18. I ended up finishing my run in 55+ min.
