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.

1:48:18. I tried really hard to get out early today, forecast says high of 108F, yesterday was 104F or something like that, I know it was 102F for my pm jog. Anyway, I got out at 7:30, which meant it was 95F or so when I finished. Little road, little trails, lots o' hills. Loved every second of it (except the relentless heat, and sun). Stopped once for a drink from the best drinking fountain EVER ... refrigerated!! Sigh, pure bliss :-) Great track and field yesterday!! The men's 5K and Bowerman mile were incredible!! (Loved to see Ritz looking strong). Brenda Martinez (miler) ran a 1:58 800, and 17 year old Mary Cain ran a 1:59!!!! Both of these two are going to make the other milers worry at USAs in a few weeks ... Now that they both have proven to have sub 2 min 800 speed. Can't wait!! In road racing news, Koech just ran an unofficial 58:14 1/2 marathon in San Diego!!! That is 18 seconds off the world record!! Insanely fast! Happy Sunday bloggers!

| AM: (9 miles,1:18:43). Hills and heat. I was quite depressed today as I hit a deer on my way home from work last night. It was horrible. I am not sure if he/she lived or not. PM: easy 4 | | Comments(4) |

| AM: (easy 8, 1:08). I really MUST get out earlier in the Summer. I was up by 5:30 (the dogs don't understand the concept of "weekends"), but still did not manage to get out the door until 8:30. Consequently it was already 93F and sunny. Don't like it much. PM: easy 4 | | Comments(2) |
