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.

Met my friend Cynthia for an early am run.  She just had a baby and is getting back in the groove.  I wanted a few more miles, but given the sprained ankle recovery etc I just went home and did some core work.  

 Run was from Cynthia's house thru all the Lagoon trails up to the Pond, down main street and back.  Very fun on the trails.  Distance may have been a bit more as my Garmin 405 doesnt like trails. 51:52
