Short-Term Running Goals:

I ran my first 5K race on May 5th, 2012 in 26:40. I want to continue to improve on my times. My main reason for starting to run and ride my bike was to improve my overall health. I am currently 217 lbs ( I was 254 at my heaviest) my goal weight by the end of March is 200. By the end of October when I will run my second Half Marathon I want to be to my goal weight of 180. After I lose the weight I will re-evaluate my goals and look more at race time goals.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Remain healthy by continuing a regular routine of running and bike riding.

Personal:

I married my beautiful wife on 8/27/1982. We have been blessed with six wonderful children (5 daughters(18-29) and 1 son(7)), and six grandchildren. I started running in Jan 2012 after 32 years of not running. When I first started I couldn't run half a mile without stopping. By the end of September I completed my first half marathon and my longest run of 15 miles. I still have a lot to improve but at least it is a start.
