~~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.

57:43. This was probably closer to 6.5 miles, but I was only supposed to run for ~50 mins so I am calling it 6 ;-). Easy run up the Yeatman trail. It is raining, snowing just up the road, and about 50F today. Pretty nice day!

Have a great weekend!!

Raining to the north of me. Raining to the south of me. All I got was a couple of sprinkles last night on my way home.

Are you still coming this way Saturday or did that imaginary conversation you and KFB had with me on FB offend you?

Hi Burt, you did not offend me. I was afraid we offended you. Yes, we are coming up. We will be at John's office (in Mesa) at 11, usually we are there for about 2 hours, sometimes a little more. We will probably get some lunch afterward, do you know of some place near QC that we could get a sandwich or something on the way home, or somewhere 1/2 between Mesa and QC? Dean was saying that I should do my 2nd run with you, but I told him you run too fast for me ... he said you would slow down for me, but I told him that he did not know you and that I did not think you actually would! Anyway, we need to be back in Tucson by 6PM or so - but if there is a way we could meet up for a RBF and a hug - that would be great. Email me your phone number and I can call you when we have a better sense of when we would be finishing up at Johns.

You two have fun.

It's snowing here. For real.

Bonnie - My SIL is coming over so I can help her with her homework. Anyway, we're having Mexican food at my house at 2pm. You are more than welcome. And I would totally slow down for you. In fact, right now, I can't help but go slow. LOL! I'll send you my number.

Burt is a nice guy, he would slow down for you for sure! Have fun!

I pray we are done with the snow for a few months!!!!
