My accomplishment to date completing 15 marathons and 6 ultras....nothing fast....yet.

Short-Term Running Goals:

In the next 2 years I'd like to complete three 50 milers and a hundred miler before I turn 40. I'd like to break 5 hour marathon and then a 4:45 marathon and then keep improving. I’m starting to think I’ll hit 100 miles before I see a sub 5 hour marathon…..Geez.

Fifty miler #1: 2008 JFK 50 13:29:53

#2 Hearland 50 13:51 (got lost had to find road back)

#3 Bethel Hill Moonlight Boogie June 12, 2010...very soon

Two down....one more to go!

Long-Term Running Goals:

I would like to run 100 miles.

Personal:

I've got two wonderful kids who are 6 and 8. I want to pass on the joy of running.

Due to unbelievably beautiful weather I decided to take a quick 3 mile trail run before returning to work from a doc appointment.

The trail is a bit wet from yesterdays rain and had the smell of musty wet leaves. The birds were chattering up a storm and squirrels/chipmunks were fleeing from the path. Honestly, I could have spent all morning and afternoon out there running that trail, jumping puddles, and stomping in mud. There is just something about being on this trail that brings out my inner child.

I'm going to try and get back there next week.

I understand completely; there's something about trail running in general that makes me want to run through the mud puddles and play for hours on end.

Sounds like it was a great run...
