1/2 marathon: 1:34:31 (2011)
marathon: 3:19:15 (2013)
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.

| 1:54:32. Longer route than last week, mainly because I ran a few more loops of trail. Still probably not 14 miles, but likely either last weekends route was short or this one is longer. Not worried, just running lots of hills, with varied terrian, and enjoying the weather!

| AM: 9 miles - 1:17:xx. Ran the last 20` hard. Time from "landmark" was 18:54 out and 15:13 back! I figure it was about 7:35 pace. So fun!
PM: easy 4

| Easy run ...
Drove up to Phoenix to see our therapist, John. He said I needed to get regular massage again. My back pain is likely originating in the joint of my greater trochantor (not good, because it is likely the arthritis) -- he worked me over, I could bend over and get about 2 inches from my toes after he was finished (I could only get to my knees before -- that is pretty bad!).
Felt much better afterward, even though I am covered in bruises :)

| AM: easy 10 -- ok, I won't lie, it wasn't easy. It was hilly, it wasn't really fun -- but, the weather was perfect (45F and sunny) -- and I really can't complain :)

| Super early, hilly run. Cold, by Tucson standards .... Very glad it is Friday, it has been another looong week at work. This job is pretty tough, I will admit.
Have a great weekend bloggers!!

Took zula (the cat) to the vet, we are having "litter box issues". She may have colitis, we will try drugs and a new diet before resorting to "retraining" which won't be fun for anyone.
