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.

| 2:13:30. Ran from home today, which meant I was going to be running a very very hilly run. It was almost nearly perfect for a long run ... cloudy, 55F, the only bad thing was the wind -- it was super windy. But, wind is tolerable when running slow (not nearly as bad as on the track). Felt super good today. Finished really strong and I was very pleased. I have a lot of work to finish today ... too bad, I would really love a nap, but duty calls. Have a wonderful Sunday bloggers. | | Comments(2) |

| AM: (13.5 miles, 1:21:52). 29:04wu/30:30cd. Fartlek workout: 2 x 3` 2` 1` w/2` recovery. A little harder than it looks on paper -- especially if you go out too hard on the first one ;-). PM: 4 miles easy. Happy Tuesday bloggers!! I hope you are all doing well. I am still in overdrive ... | | Comments(3) |

AM: (7.5 miles, 1:06:45). I was supposed to do a tempo run today, but I am having problems with my hamstrings and after running down to the track, and having the pain not go away with warm-up, I decided to not to make things worse. I had a massage yesterday, it was definitely inflammed along the whole hamstrings - lower all the way up to the insertion point. It feels a little better today, so if it feels better by Sunday I will do a fast finish long run which will be about the same training stimulus. PM: 4 miles easy. I am trying to figure out how to get up to Phoenix to see John this weekend. It is tricky because I am supposed to attend a "retreat" at work Saturday from 8-1, I have 45 midterms to grade, 2 grants to work on, and prepare for Monday's lecture ... sigh. I might play hooky from the retreat if I can get in to see John ... but it still means no naps and no rest (for a very weary Bonnie). I hope you are all doing well bloggers -- run well, run happy, run safe!

| AM: (8 miles, 1:11:23). Felt better this morning ... leg still hurt but not as much as two days ago. Went up to Phoenix to see John (the fix-it guy). Ouch. He said it is my hip, the pain is moving around because I keep trying to compensate ... the actual "root" of the problem though is in my lumbar spine. He gave me some exercises to do ... I think I need to go back more regularly. PM: 4 miles easy in the 30-40 mph winds. yikes. | | Comments(2) |
