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.

| 2:04:xx I ran the "usual" San Diego route -- up Harbor Drive and then I ran a loop on Harbor Island (~3miles) and then kept going toward Point Loma. I found a nice 3 mile stip of dirt to run on (ahhh) - and these miles also had a plethora of water/bathrooms, so it was nice to be able to get a drink at the turnaround! Life is good -- even with meetings/events/conference stuff ;-). I had the board meeting on Friday and Saturday, and only one event to attend on Sunday (but I got to catch up with some friends from college and had dinner with a friend of mine from my post doc days in DC). On Monday I had to chair two committees, and on Tuesday I had to present at two different meetings. Plus, in the evenings I had to attend a few "receptions" where the board members are sort of required to attend. It is fun though, Dean said that " you were born to conference" ;-) | | Add Comment |

| 1:09:xx Such a nice day (and my last in San Diego) that I couldn't resist running a little farther than usual for a Wednesday. SO nice! | | Add Comment |

| AM: (10 miles, 1:30:04). Hotter than I am used too ... but really not that bad! PM: easy 4. Good to be home, even though it is desert here ;-) | | Comments(2) |

| 1:06:34. Nice and hilly ... in a hurry, again. This time it was because I had to get home for our internet provider to come by to see why our internet was not working (because we are out in the boonies we don't have DSL or Broadband access so we have a super fast satellite provider). Well, after much deliberation, discussion, and major technologic sleuthing ... I had unplugged the power to the connection ;-). duh. Have a great day bloggers! | | Comments(4) |

AM: (~8 miles, 1:11:50). Probably a little longer than 8, but it was 96.8F (exactly ;-)) and sunny -- whew, my first run "back" to the full-on desert heat. PM: easy 4 NBC did not even cover the womens 10K!! horrible coverage, they only cover US stuff - where the US wins or qualifies, and skips everything else. Better coverage can be found here or here, both have Brit announcers (who are awesome at track and field coverage). Even for you on Macs you can get this (despite what it says when you first open it -- you can close the pop-ups and it should work -- it worked on our iMac). I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend, I have to go drink some ice now ;-).
