Personal:

I love to run.  Most days, it is the difference between a good day and a great day.  And on those days that aren't so good, a nice long run helps me to relax and remember what is important to me.

I'm an attorney, but frankly, I don't like most lawyers.  I don't care about money or social status.  Fortunately, I found my dream job as a prosecutor. As such, I spend most of my time in court trying to achieve a resolution that will have the best impact on our community.

I've been married to my best friend, Jennifer, since 2003.  I like to think she has made a decent man out of the boy she married.  We have 3 amazing children.  They are the joy of my life.

Two loops around the lake at 7:20 pace.  Felt good to run at this effort level.  First half was just over 29 minutes and the second half was under 30 minutes.  A very balanced run.  Need to run more frequently to loosen up my legs.

Just a quick evening loop around the lake and island.  The first mile was a little slow, but I warmed up quick since the temperature was still in the high 80's at 8:30.  I finished in just under 36 minutes.

This morning run started off right with a nice easy mile followed by a quick pace for the next mile.  Things kind of fell apart from there. I had to go to the bathroom really bad and I started to feel cramps in my lower back.  I slowed down, but I wasn't haveing any fun.  Finally I had to walk a half-mile to a porta-potty around Mile 9.  As soon as that was done I felt much better and finsihed strong.
