My last post said that I set my sights on Rock Raccoon 50k. Well that didn't happen. Life got in the way. My wife has been going to school to get her masters in Speech Pathology and our son is growing up and we got a new dog. On top of that I am work on making my business work. I know that there are people out there that can relate. Sometimes life just opens up everything it has and lets loose to see if you can hang.
But it is time to set some new goals and strive to reach those this time working to balance everything all at the same time. Life won't get much easier but I can some how learn to work smarter. And enjoy it as I go along not worrying about what tomorrow will bring, but creating the moment as I pass through time. I have always wanted to run a 50 miler, 100 miler and many other races.
What is stopping me? Myself believing that I can't.
This past Friday a friend of mine called me and asked if I wanted to go and run Bandera 25k. I couldn't resist. I have run this race before and it was great! It would be a great way to get back into training and prepare to run Hogs Hunt 50k my third year in a row and shoot for a PR.
I am still doing crossfit and am seeing the results I would like to see. However my eating habits have fallen of the cliff! That is one aspect of my life that I must change in order for me to run a PR at Hogs Hunt this year. I will be shooting for under 6 hours.
Also, I would like to run my first 50 miler in 2011. It seems like a long shot but anything is possible. I will post some new pictures of the training crew as it has changed a little. Some of you may remember Shelly our border collie who past away this past year. she was a great dog! Currently Roxy has joined us and she is in training and learning fast on how to become a great training partner. Timmie loves to go on runs with dad and will continue to love it!
Later
