??? Chicago Marathon ??? Long-Term Running Goals: Find balance. Run with my girls. Break 15 in the 5k. Personal: Born in 1973 in Southern California.
Ran in high school for Arcadia. They have a famous cross-country team now. In my day, we were famous for dodging our coach during runs.
Over the next 15 years I ran very little, but life was awesome. I lived mostly in Northern California, where I met my wife. We moved back to her native state of Florida in 2005, where I gradually started running more seriously.

| AM: 21 miles on a beautiful morning, 6:55 avg pace. Ran with Scott D and Mike M - small group this morning since we have two big local races today.
Should be fun to see the results. Also watching Jon Mott, one of the best runners in Central FL, try to hit the OTQ mark in Houston.
PM: 2 miles, running with Elise on her bike.

| AM: 10 miles. I'm going to be working at a client for the next couple weeks that reminds me of the captain from The Black Hole. Not in the sense that he turns his employees into cyborgs, but in that his enterprise lives on the brink of a spinning vortex of chaos and destruction. The problem for me is going to be squeezing in my lunch runs.
PM: Zero. I was hoping I could find a small window, but there was no escaping the Kafka-themed reality show we seem to be filming at work.

| AM: 4 miles. I'm making it to track tonight no matter what.
PM: 10 miles. Here was the workout for tonight: 4 X 400 WITH 200 REST, 5 X 400 WITH 200 REST, 4 X 400 WITH 200 REST; 400 REST BETWEEN THE THREE SETS
It was a struggle tonight. I was worn down, and things were about to get real ugly when Lee jumped in and started each rep a few seconds ahead to pull me in. Considering he ran a marathon on Sunday, he definitely got in his good deed for the day.
- 1:09, 1:13, 1:12, 1:13
- 1:13, 1:12, 1:14, 1:11, 1:14
- 1:13, 1:12, 1:12, 1:10
Recovery pace averaged about 8:20. Not the sharpest, but I was glad to get through it.

| AM: 12 miles, with 3x2 miles around 10k pace, 5 minute jog recoveries in between. Subjectively, at least, the best workout of the year. Compared to last week, I felt in much better control of the pace.
- 10:43 (5:22, 5:21)
- 10:38 (5:20, 5:18)
- 10:39 (5:22, 5:17)
One thing I seem to keep forgetting and needing to relearn is that when I'm trying to run a 10k, it's best for me to start above target pace and work down. I've probably imploded in the 10k more than any other distance, and running even a few seconds too fast in the first mile or two is a bad, bad idea.
My race is in two weeks, and I can feel it starting to come together. On a good day, I think I can run a PR (a little under 33:30). I'd love to break 33, but that's going to be a stretch.
PM: 5 miles at lunch with Quint.

PM: 0. I had an hour this afternoon between my niece's birthday party and my daughter's basketball game. Run 5 miles or sleep? I chose sleep. Very solid nap.
