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.

Ran at noon from work up City Creek Canyon to the 1 mile marker and back.  6.7 miles 53:17.  Felt pretty good except the glute started tightening up on the way down the canyon.

Gorgeous day for running!!!

Woke up this morning feeling less than stellar.  Headache, achy body, etc but opted to go ahead with planned 12 miler.  Started at Einsteins on S Temple in SLC and ran up City Creek Canyon to the Power Plant.  Ran with R, so pace was very easy, too easy maybe but given how I was feeling I was fine with it. 

 Morning was gorgeous with lots of runners.  After the run, we got bagels at Einsteins and I started feeling yucky again.  Went home, cleaned up, napped for an hr, and still feel achy.  Maybe I am getting a bug?  Will take it easy the rest of the day.
