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.

Slept a solid 8 hrs and could have slept a little longer, except the dog was demanding to be let out.  Beautiful morning so I decided to sneak in an unplanned run.  Temps were nice to start, but warmed up too fast for me.  Ran from home thru the Lagoon bike trails (nice & shady) then out to Glovers Lane.  The last part was completely unshaded and hot!  50:21. Did have some quicker sections, but the last part home uphill always is a challenge.

Met Michelle S at Liberty Park.  She was running late, so I decided to run up the east side of the park then down the middle, guessing 1.1 miles.  We then did 6 miles together.  Fun!

Crazy day at work.  Ended up on the treadmill at night.  Warmed up for 2 miles, then did speed changes for 3 miles (200 mtr).  First 2@ 7mph, next 2 @ 7.5 mph, next 4 at 8 mph, last 4 at 9 mph.  Cool down for a mile.
