Shamrock Marathon, Va Beach VA. Waited a week to post as I wasn’t happy with how I ran. Despite a strong 3:36, I lost focus and missed BQ by 1:39 min. Lesson: fight harder to stay with 3:35 Pack at mile 22 to help finish strong. Overall happy but disappointed I lost focus at end.

Long Play Ultra Trail Race in Central FL. 34 miler in high heat and humidity but a fun day.

“Murph Monday” - afternoon work out named for LT Michael Murphy who paid the ultimate sacrifice on 28 June 2005 in Afghanistan - great way to challenge your mind and body, and reflect on Warriors past and present.

Saturday Long Runs - gotta love them. Easy 9min pace over 14 miles with my Irish 31 Run Club friends early in the morning along Tampa waterfront before we joined in Gasparilla festivities later in the day.

Intermittent Fasting: “game changer” for me. Started 30 days ago on the 16:8 plan but settled into a 18:6 schedule. 18 hours of fasting (water only), and 6 hour eating window. Salads, protein, fruit, veggies. Continued daily workouts. Shedding stored BF - helping my running.

New Goal for 2023: help others learn more about Health and Fitness, destination Marathons/races, and trials, struggles, and lessons learned over the years. And share really cool races and locations.

Wednesday Run Workout: Timed 10 miler along Tampa Riverwalk and Bayshore Blvd. Incredible weather. Continuing a “1 x Marathon a month” plan to get faster and stronger. Love it!! Got to keep moving…..or you rust.

Houston Chevron Marathon. Great race. Fast course. Huge crowds. Great support. Definitely a race to run again.
