Jeff Running
My love of running began in high school. Though I didn't run track or cross country (I was a swimmer) I ran for fitness durning the off season, regularly putting in 5 miles at a time.
The Army afforded me more running (albeit not at my pleasure all the time) and then college found me road racing for the first time--regular 5K races around Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
I've now resumed my running now that I am approaching 40, finishing a 5K in Los Angeles in a respectable 28 min (respectable in that I didn't really train for it).
February 12 is the date of my first half marathon (13.1 mi.). I've gotten a late start in training and most people say that my training plan is foolish and non-sensical. In that case, it fits me just right, so...on your mark! Click the links below to see my training schedule as recorded on
