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 from my house this morning.  I ran with Sasha to the end of the trail, then ran back to my house.  Following this, I walked Kimia to her work, and then finished up my run by running home to give me a little over a mile more to finish 15.5 miles in just over 2:00:00

slightly different route this evening.  I slept in again, so I ran late.

I ran with Sasha again.  My foot is starting to feel a little better.  Maybe because of the snow, so there is less pounding?  Anyhow, I have been rubbing it down a fair amount, and I think that helps as well.

The snow slowed me down a lot today.  The run was so slow that I ended up cutting it short and ran only 18.25 miles in over 2:35:00.
