Short-Term Running Goals: 3:20 marathon - Eugene Marathon, April 28, 2013 (can I say I really want a sub 3:20? but I will be happy with 3:20-3:23) -- whoohoo!
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.

| ok ... I told myself that as soon as I could eat again, I could run again. Well, yesterday I almost ate two meals (I did not finish dinner but ate 3/4 of it). It is not that my stomach as been upset - it is that my throat has been hurting so badly that I haven't been able to swallow. Anyway, I got out to run - hoping beyond hope that I could even do a long run. ha ha. I was so tired within 20 mins that I wasn't even sure I would be able to run home. Hoping that I am still on the mend, and have not set myself back even further ... I hate getting sick. And this time was one of the worst ever. I did not even go into work 2 days last week (and I NEVER miss work, I was back at work 1/2 time a week after having major surgery last year). Stay healthy bloggers.

Yippeee. I still coughed for 10 mins while waiting for the light to turn at 400S, but overall I felt much better on my run today. I would not say I am "well" - but I have managed to eat almost 2 meals/day (though I still can't taste them at all) over the past 3 days, and I worked over 12 hours yesterday, so I feel like I can try to run again. Greg and I decided that I would just take it day-by-day this week and pick up on Sunday where I left off. I will be travelling almost every week for the next few weeks, so it might be a bit of a challange to stay healthy, but I am planning on trying my very best!!
Hope all is well in bloggersville. | | Comments(2) |

| easy miles, still sick. Dean just went to the doctor and got an antibiotic ... I might have to get on some too ... I am giving a talk tomorrow, and then next week I will be in Tucson visiting U of Arizona and then to visit my coach (and the Mcmillan elite team) in Flagstaff. I just want to run my long run this weekend! Take care bloggers. | | Add Comment |

another easy run. I actually felt pretty good while I was running (hence why I went for 6 miles) ... but after I stopped running I coughed so hard and for so long that I threw up - wow, what is up with that. I am hoping the antibiotics I am getting this afternoon are going to help.
More snow is on its way -- probably it will snow until I leave for the desert next week!

| a little faster today - about 8:50 pace. Tried to take it easy, if the antibiotics start working, and I get enough rest today, I am hoping to actually run a little long tomorrow and start getting back to where I was before I got sick. | | Add Comment |
