Goal Type:

Marathon Finish

Running Accomplishments:

A marathon runner just trying to enjoy good health and running long. 22 years between marathon 6 & 7, raising kids. 48 marathons and counting. Average finishing time ~  3:25. Want to keep this average above 3:30 as I continue to age deepin into my 50's.   Looking for a 3:12 in SLC 2012

Short-Term Running Goals:

Keep my SL Marathon time in "teens". Possibly break the teens (3:12 - 3:00).  Two screws in right knee gives me a reality check on my ambitions. I don't want to sacrafice my joint for too crazy of a goal. Good health is my real goal.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Continue running strong into my 60's, and add to my marathon count.  In 1982 I finished St. George at 2:57, 1 second behind a 60 year old. I've always  wondered if I could break 3 hours when I'm in my 60's. I'd like to find out.

Personal:

Married 26 years. Rosalie and I have 4 children. Love running hills, especially up Millcreek Canyon. I live 3/4 mile from its base.

Redrock Marathon 2011: 3:33 - major accomplish. 3,300' elevation gain.

This was a warm afternoon run, up to the Lookout at front of Mt. Granduer. Only one person on the trail this time, so it was peaceful. Hit the lookout at 38:32. And back down in 35:30. What an awsome run. Want to do it again and again, in afternoon when the sun is setting.

After dropping off the car at the mechanics, I ran up and north to 13th South, and along Wasatch Drive across Parleys. I felt sore from my climb to lookout.

A run north on 23rd, up to and through Tanner Park, above Eastwood, up Milcreek and down. Feeling refreshed from Pocatello marathon. Felt like I could run the route again without problem.
