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.

1:59:32 (I ran this same route last week in about 2:04). Hot -- I started at 7:15, it was already in the 90s. Luckily, there was some cloud cover until the last 45` - so it was so much better than it could have been. The last 2 miles are uphill, and I tried to run them at a decent clip. It was ~ 4 mins faster than my "usual" easy pace up! yea. Bad thing was it was too hot for me to have done this, my face was flushed, and my pulse was spiked high for about 2 hours afterward 97F and sunny + pushing the pace after a very hilly course don't mix :) - I couldn't help myself, WTF has inspired me!!! Brenda Martinez, Jenny Barringer, Molly Huddle, Shannon Rowbury, Mary Cain, Alisa Montanyo, !Deena! (at 40!!). Holy cow -- how could I not try to sprint up the hill???
