I rank somewhere between the competitive recreational runner and the competitive highschool runner. Here's the scale:
10 - World record holder; 9 - Olympic Athlete; 8 - National elite; 7 - Professional runner; 6 - College All-american; 5 - College runner; 4 - Local elite; 3 - Competitive runner; 2 - Recreational runner; 1 - Jogger
It's a tough scale. Short-Term Running Goals:
-
Run for fun and health, be fit in my 40s
-
Run a strong half marathon, under 1:25, good, under 1:20, great.
Long-Term Running Goals:
- Be a disciplined runner, to be competitive in my age category, and feel strong while racing.
- Somehow actually put together a full year of running: increased discipline and decreased distraction and injuries
- Be a 17/36 guy for 5K/10K (not realistic now)
- Be a competitive Master's runner
Personal: Spoken for, Christian, piano player, soli deo gloria, at least that's the ideal. Living for Triune God, beautiful wife, cute sons, self; hopefully in that order but Adam's nature and my own choices, not to mention worldly temptations like to play with the ideal.
Idealism, tempered by reality, with a healthy skepticism. Favorite Blogs: |

| Easy disc golf Sat. evening, 1.5
Sun hike with fam Corner canyon, ran from open hollow up canyon rim (?) trail to hoof and boot trail to a great overlook, stopped when it started to go south and no turnaround in site, asked some bikers. Was going up faster than one biker, and on the down 2 bikers didn't pass me. Lovely run, then cooled off driving to homestead. Good calf workout up and leg extension down, pretty good day after race run. 4

| Mon - Halloween race w slctrackclub. Short warm-up, then ran easy letting it play out. Fast Neal and other guy were in front, caught up to Paul and ran with him. Other guy in white space-suit elongated his way ahead. Ran with Paul at good pace, wanted to rest a bit since just raced Sat. When Neal lapped us I ran with him, had 3 laps to go. Ran 1&1/2 laps w Neal, he spaced me out on his last lap. I had one to go, some extended sprint, most likely a 21:40 5K, 40 seconds behind white space suit. Talked w/ Paul and 2nd place after. Good candy and camaraderie and costume contest.
Tue - H.O.R.S.E. with tall turn-around 3 guy, split two games, then won the rubber match
Wed - ball w/Mark at 70th Ward, good group of guys. Young and athletic with fair b-ball smarts, got on a good team at first and won 2 games 2m
Thu - late, one game with Steve and the Hispanic guy's 2 good sons, they have the fake moves and the dribbling but we had the old guy smarts, 1m
