I would like to run an Olympic Trials Qualifier in the marathon.

I would also like to run on one more international team before I pack it in!

 Stay healthy!  (My biggest challenge!)

Personal:

I've been running since I was nine.  I'm married to a fellow runner who inspires and supports me.  We have two children:  Cole (4) and Lily (18 mos.)  I help Bill Cobler coach cross country at East High School.

Had to work to get back before the kids needed to leave for school.  It's tough getting both Teren's and my runs in.  Up to Valley Park, canal road, through the neighborhood, out to 4700, up to 3200 W, to 4100S, to 2200 W and home.  New route.  I hit a 7:01 mile today!  7:27 average.

Short on time.  More of a tempo effort.  After a 7:47 first mile, I picked it up.  7:12, 6:55, 7:15, 6:55 for a 7:13 average.  It was some work, though.  I'm running SOJO half in October with my brother in law.  He wants to aim for sub 1:40  So, 7:30 pace for 13.1.  If I can get more consistent over the next month it should be doable.  Time to lengthen out my runs a bit.

Nice morning to run.  I still need to get to where I run every day, but slowly I am improving.  7:24 average for eight miles.  The last two were pretty hard, but I was good through six.  I definitely need to increase my stamina.
