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.

| Did not get out as early as I wanted (probably about 9AM!!) -- dumb. It was hot, but it could have been worse :) my phone said 90F when I finished, which, for Tucson in August, is not that bad ... ran my super hilly route, not fast, but hard enough to be a great workout. | | Add Comment |

| Easy 60 mins.
Trying to catch-up on blogging, and keep up with work. This management stuff is for the birds -- too many meetings, too many people to keep track of, I sort of missing doing real work that has tangible outcomes :)

| Very early morning meeting - my hope was to be able to get an hour in the morning and 50-60` in the evening, but old Mother Nature had different plans. Huge thunderstorm on my way home, 45 mph winds (I am not kidding), lightening and rain. I am not afraid of a little rain, even a lot of rain, but I am not likely the whirly wind (of the type haboobs are made of), so, I decided to postpone my PM run until tomorrow! | | Comments(2) |

| AM: easy 9 PM: easy 3.5 (ran out of daylight -- I got out of work late, as usual). Glad I was able to get the mileage in, despite the timing challenges of work schedule this week. I am a little bummed that: 1) it is getting dark earlier again -- which is hard because you can't run in the dark in a no-to-low light city, and 2) that it is still so freaking hot right now (108-109F on most days - with *lows* in the 80s). BUT, I am not complaining -- really :) | | Add Comment |
