Personal:

Born 1972 in north central Wisconsin

Married for 11 yrs to very supportive non-running wife. Two children : Fiona, 6 (in picture) and Elliott (2 yrs)

Co-Race Director of  Delano Park 12 Hour Run (www.delano12.com). President of River City Runners (www.rivercityrunners.org)

3 cats and 1 dog (chocolate lab)

In high school, I was an slightly overweight , badly asthmatic J.V. cross country runner.  I enjoyed being part of the team but never excelled.   The summer after my freshman year in college I decided to run a marathon.  6 weeks later I ran a 3:11 at Grandma's Marathon in Duluth (1991) and I was hooked on long distance running where my asthma wasn't as much of a factor.

2 mile warmup and then a 20:04 5K  (tempo pace , 6:27/mile), Training schedule had me doing another 5K but I didn't have it in me.  Finished out the rest of the 10 miles at easy pace.

easy lunch run,   Daniels running formula tells me that EASY is 8 min/mile so I tried to pay attention and run at that pace,   My not-thinking easy pace is a little slower than that.

Long Run.  Ran over to Pt. Mallard to watch some of the cross country races (Decatur High's "Dew It on the Trails" meet.  Lots of kids (1300 or so).     Got fatigued at 15-16 miles but kept at it.  Kept it around 8 min/mile mostly.

tried a new route.   Parked on Red Bank,  ran across 31 and then to Norris Mill (Central Parkway), headed back east on Bowles Bridge Rd, Kayo Rd, Burleson Mtn Rd, to  Indian Hills.  Nice Climbs.      Return on Red Bank Rd.

 Saw 4 women putting furniture in the middle of the road taking photographs of themselves.

 

I need a hard week of training.  My marathon is coming up fast.
