~~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: (9 miles, 1:18:20). Last hilly 10` at half-marathon pace. Felt ok ... I was out too late last night, Dean had a faculty candidate and we took him to dinner and it ended up being a late night. My hip feels weird again, it doesn't really hurt, I just don't feel like I am getting any range of motion, simply odd. I have not felt as bad (overall) as I did last week, the increased carbs must be helping ...

PM: easy 4.

Very busy day today -- I hope you are all doing well!!

Hi Bonnie! I saw a couple javelina on my run last night. I tried to text you, but you either ignored me or the two numbers I have for you are not valid.

Ahhhhh Burtie -- I thought that was you!!! I wasn't sure who it was (it did not show up with your name-I think it is because you were in my old phone - I will have to add you in this one).

How cool!! Sorry I did not get the message (Dean was nervous about his surgery today - so I was a little distracted).

I hope his surgery went well. And you need to reply so that I know which of the two numbers are yours.
