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.

| I felt a little better this weekend, so I took a chance and ran the hot, hilly route. It is such a good workout, and I always feel so good if I can finish strong on this route. Yea!
I think I am getting a little better every week, the new treatment is working well. Very limited side-effects (it takes a little emotional strength to actually give myself the shot, but it is definitely worth this minor thing). I am sometimes bummed, because I really am not sure I am ever going to be able to train again, but I am trying to just be grateful I can still run. Well, I guess also grateful I can walk, and work, things were getting so bad a couple months ago I really wondered how long I was going to be able to do either. So, compared to that, I am great :)
Happy Sunday bloggers!
