Personal:

I am a 37 year old Male.  I have been married now for over 15 years.  I have three kids, all boys.  My boys ages are 14, 11 and 7.  I have always enjoyed running and my wife is slowly being converted.   While I was going through college I didn't do much running so I am having to teach my leg how to run fast again.

10 miles on the river coarse in 1:32:33.  Got up early 5:30 and went running because the kitchen remodel starts today.  By the time I got home I had frost in my Eye lashes.  By the end of the day my kitchen is just 4 walls and plywood for floors.  My house was build in 58 and the kitchen cabinets were original.  The floor had at least 2 layers of flooring.  The kitchen had some 12 inch drop down ceiling that were made out of 2 by 12's.  I finished the demo work at 9 oclock pm.

6 miles in the snow.  Ran in the morning with about 3 inches of snow on the roads.  The snow plows hadn't even done the main st.  Not as cold as Tuesday.  Ran it in 57:54 about a 9:30 mile.  How do you run fast when you can't take large steps or push off.
