Running Accomplishments:

My 10K PR is 32:40, set in 1988 at Fort Lewis, WA.

Short-Term Running Goals:

Short term goal is a sub 40 minute 10K, would also like to have a respectable time for a 1/2 marathon.

Long-Term Running Goals:

I hope to have the pleasure of racing with my kids as they get older.

Personal:

I was a fairly fast 10Ker approximately 20 years ago.  Although I have been running, at various levels, since that time, I haven't been focused solely on running (done a lot of biking, and triathlons....even powerlifting for a few years!).

 

I am married and have 2 kids, a boy (10) and a girl (8).  My wife is an avid cyclist and races in Idaho and Utah.

Hey! Welcome back to the blog! Good to see you running. Keep on tracking, any running/biking plans for you and Anna this year?

When should we grab a beer?

From robpod on Mon, Mar 05, 2012 at 15:56:12 from 8.23.154.5

Thanks! I've been doing some running and working out--but not training. Anna has her schedule set, I haven't yet. Looking at Island Park 1/2 and Mesa Falls 1/2, probably a few 10Ks in between.

Maybe the beer tomorrow?

Beautiful Saturday morning!  Planned on doing a 4X30sec TM hill interval run today, but just had to go outside.  Modified it make the run a bit longer, and actually programmed the intervals into my Forerunner, which I had never done before.  It worked well.  Finally feeling recovered from the lifting on Tuesday.....

After work out and back from home to Bucks.  5 miles in 39 minutes, felt pretty good, awesome day, mid-50's and light breeze.  Got chased by two stupid dogs, no threat just goofy, they ran with me for about a mile before losing interest.  They kept stepping on my heals and cutting in front of me, felt like a trail run!

I saw you running down Sunnyside tripping all over the dogs. I originally thought they were yours but after seeing them aggrevate you, I realized I was mistaken. At least they didn't try to attack you.

Good run.

18 mile bike ride with Anna yesterday average 19 mph, first one of the year.  Between this and the long run on Saturday may be why the legs were a bit heavy today.

Hill intervals in park near hotel.  There was a path around some soccer fields and then a set of stairs (6-7 flights) on one end.  The path was about 0.6 miles, so it worked out nice to run a lap to recover and then a few stair sets.  Did the stairs 6 times, and then just did sprints next the the stairs 4 times.

Good job and run! There are great running paths in the Denver area. If you are near it try running on the (Google to find it)Highline Canal trail (a 66 mile trail from Littleton through the center of Denver).

Have a good trip!
