Short-Term Running Goals: Have not seriously raced since 2005, but just run for fun while gettting over several injuries. Goal is to get back my fitness and not get re-injured. I am much older now and recovery takes a bit longer. Goals for 2011, besides staying healthy:
Wasatch Back Relay
Top of Utah Half Aug 1:32
Reach the Beach Relay (Sept)
The Other Half marathon Oct 1: 30
Long-Term Running Goals: I would love to do a 50 miler, plus get back to running a marathon in the 3 hr + range, but need to get running healthy again. Personal: Married with two grown boys. One has embraced running and the other is a snowboard fanatic. My profession, I am a computer analyst and geek. After hours, I am a fitness nut who also enjoys reading and hanging out with my family.

Snow last night? Really? I was tempted to bag running, but then the sun came out so I decided to go for an easy 4.2 miler (33:52). Just ran from home thru the trails behind Lagoon and back home. Felt suprisingly good. Yoga has been my magic ticket on getting healthy so I will make every effort to make time for class!
Some sort of bug bit my toe and I kept waking up in the night. I finally got up and found some sort of ani-itch cream to stop it. Yuck.
NRR for me, I just found out that my youngest had to run 1.5 miles for his fitness class at SLCC and ran it in 8:40! This is my "I hate to run" son. |

| Ran from work, up City Creek Canyon to the 1 mile marker and back. 6.7 miles in 54:18. Slow up the canyon and low 7ish pace on the way down. The creek is running really high. I hope we don't have flooding issues! Still having some insommnia issues. I fall asleep quickly, but then have been waking up and unable to get back to sleep. Its been 3 nights of this. Wanted to go to yoga, but had to work late. Its marked on my calendar for tomorrow after work. This one is called Strength/Core yoga. |

Beautiful run at lunch. 4.7 mile course from work, up Memory Grove to the guard shack at City Creek Canyon and back (38:42) . Ran easy on the way up and quicker on the way down. What a difference it makes being able to run in shorts and sports bra.
Went to a Yoga for Strength class after work. Lots of strength moves, planks, handstands, balance moves plus hip openers. I think this is already helping my running.
Note, this was my fifth running day in a row. Have not done that since my ankle surgery in December!!! |

Scheduled day off of running. After 5 consecutive days, I thought cross training was a logical option. Did 55 mins on the elliptical at work followed by some light stretching. Walked Abbie 2 miles after work. Beautiful evening! |

Decided to do my long run on Friday, so decided to do yoga today vs. run. I have just been so tired this week and realized that I have been building mileage thru March but never stepped back.
Yoga was excellent. Highly recommend Avenues Yoga in SLC. They have great personal teachers and really work well with runners.

Met my good friend Anna at the Einsteins on Wasatch Dr and I am glad I had someone to meet cuz the weather was awful. On my own I would have run on the treadmill and not as far. We did a loop running south on Wasatch, then dropped down the hill running west and then back south again and wound up by Porcupine Grill (Big Cottonwood Canyon), then ran back on Wasatch.
Weather was really a horrible mix of snow, ice, and rain. Roads were also slick, so our pace was approx 8:50. Very slow for us.
I have been really sore since the Buffalo Run 25K so scheduled a massage for this afternoon. I hope that helps put the bounce back in my legs! |

Ran 5.2 miles in 43:14. Not too fast, but felt hard after the 11.5 miler yesterday. I also have been so tired this week. Slept like a rock last night and could barely make it till 10:00, then slept 9 hrs straight!
Going to an Intro to Yoga class at Avenues Yoga with running friend Anna. She is interested in getting more flexible for her running too. As we are getting older, we really need it! |
