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 part of my run today with John (a little over 4 miles) and then ran the rest of it alone. I was going to run 11 miles, but I started to have cramps and I came home just a little early. Total time was around 1:18:45. | |

| 11 miles this morning in 1:17:48. I did some short speed work during the second half of the run, running 20, 40, 60, 90, 60, 40, and 20 seconds hard with 60 seconds running recovery between all of the hard sections. The workout was a lot harder than I expected as the intensity was pretty high and the recovery was fairly short, so I actually cut the speed work shorter than I had originally planned. | |

| I ran 11.5 miles today in 1:25:26. During the run I saw another runner a ways up in front of me so I picked up the pace to try and catch him. I caught him after about 5 minutes slowing down shortly before I caught him so that he wouldn't know I had been chasing him. On my way home I decided to run a hard 1000m. I missed the marker at the end of the 1000, but I ran back and found it afterwards. I estimate that I finished somewhere in the 3:08-3:10 range. |

| Total of 16 miles today in 1:54:04. I ran 2 x 2 miles during the run, the first during the first half of the run, and the second about 2.75 miles later on my way back home. Both were run on the same section of trail, just in opposite directions. I ran the first repeat in 10:16 with quarter splits of 80, 77, 74, 78, 77, 76, 77, 77. The trail curves quite a bit and rolls with a slight net downhill heading out, and with a slight uphill heading back. I realized after the first repeat that I had pushed myself a bit too hard, so I took the second two mile repeat easy running a 11:02. Splits were 83, 83, 83, 86, 82, 86, 82, 77. Based on my splits it is obvious that certain quarters were faster or slower than others, although the final quarter during the second repeat is deceptive as it is uphill, but I closed faster than I began the first repeat. Overall it was a good workout as it was my longest run this year and finished off my first 70 mile week this year as well. | |
