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.

| 1:48:43. A balmy 95F and sunny when I finished. I am acclimated though, so it did not feel as bad as it had the past couple of weekends. I do have start earlier - because the highs for the day is set at about 11AM now, so an hour difference in starting can be the difference between having most of the run in the 90s versus most of the run in the 100s. I really did love running in the green, humid, DC/Maryland area -- but, I love my desert too. And, I love the pine forests of Northern Arizona. I am so lucky that I get to experience it all!!! Happy Sunday, bloggers! I can't wait to get caught up on all of your blogs. But, alas, today I have to clean my house, finish up a report, and try to catch up on many of hours of sleep I lost last week! | | Comments(1) |

| AM: (9.5 miles, 1:24:09). 27wu/27cd 15 x 1` w/1` recovery. I should have done a fast finish run, just to "break things up" -- but, oh well :) PM: easy 4 - as easy as 104F is anyway ... hot, but since the sun was going down (and it is a "dry heat"), it was actually not as bad as I had been anticipating!! Dean is out of town, my car is still in the shop (from the "poor deer" incident), and life is just plain hectic. But, I can't complain (much) - I have my health, I have a job (though I complain about it), I have Dean, I have running - and my FRB friends, so -- really LIFE IS GOOD! | | Add Comment |

| 4:30 AM run -- it is much much cooler this time of day :). Still don't like it though. I felt really good today - my legs did anyway. Loved running. Happy Tuesday, bloggers! | | Add Comment |

| AM:(10 miles, 1:26:32) easy run, Dean got home from his trip very very late, so not much sleep last night. Felt good on the run! PM: easy 4. Met a woman who lives in Indonesia, and has a house here in Tucson, she sort of "run stalked" me in the park, and then asked if she could run with me ... It was fun having company!
