Short-Term Running Goals:

~~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.

AM: (8.5 miles, 1:12:55). I am not sure how long this run was, 23:59wu/19:33cd. 15 x 1` on w/1` recovery.

PM: easy 4. I ran at Reid Park, the first time I have run here since my car was broken into last year ... funny, I had to go much farther to make it 18 mins before I turned around ;-).

Busy day ... they are all busy right now, but today was especially busy. Found out I need to help on a grant - last minute stuff, it is due on Friday! holy cow! Friday. bah. And it is tough stuff too.

Happy Tuesday (is it only Tuesday!?!?) bloggers! Run fast, run smart, have fun!
