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. |

| I ran 5 miles today. During the run I ran 3 sprints where I accelerated until I felt like I was going all out, after which I backed off and coasted until I had slowed back down. I doubt I was ever really pushing really hard for more than 5 seconds, but the total time for each sprint was between 10 and 20 seconds depending on how quickly I sped up/slowed down. I want to do this as I hopefully start to get back in shape again so that I can remind my body what it feels like to run fast. Even before I stopped running much I started to struggle when I attempted to sprint, barely getting under 60 seconds when I ran an all out 400 at one point. Since my training became sporadic I have not run faster than a 61 second 400. |

| We are in California to visit Kimia's family before we move. I ran 6 miles today in 39:53, running on the Los Gatos creek trail. I got excited running in a different place, and I ran faster than I had planned. I ran a 1 mile stretch just past the halfway mark in less than 6 minutes, with half of it run in 2:42. I also ran 1 sprint at the end of the run. |
