~~Some good intermediate races 15K - 1/2 marathon, to gauge my fitness level~~ (done this, hit a 1:34:35 1/2 marathon in March 2013, on a hilly course)

Going after my 10 mile PR in Fall 2013

Maybe some good 10K races after the infernal Arizona summer is over!

Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to be one of those runners who is still running in their 80s (or 90s?). You know the ones, who look all grisley and fit? That is what I would like! Until then, I just want to work hard and be as fast as I can, for as long as I can.

I am so excited for June allie, I had a dream last night about giving you a Gila Monster as a wedding gift ... sort of a cool gift (who else would have a Gila Monster as a pet?) ... but they do bite, so I hope I don't harbor some subconscience jealousy of your fastness and general coolness ;-)

hahahahahaha! that would be an excellent gift. a javelina would be a good alternative if the gila monster acts up.

Yes, but javelina smell ... they are very cute as babies though!!
