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.


Personal:

Not as fast as last week, but that is probably because it was so freaking hot.  All and all, a good run, I can't complain!

Happy Sunday!

easy 7 ... hilly, a  little on the warm side, even though I had to get out early because I had an early conference call.

I am going to try to run later this afternoon, but, I am not sure.  I feel pretty dehydrated, and since I have not eaten at all, I am a little dizzy.  I am going to try to get some calories in, and if I feel better I will jog later, otherwise, I will shoot for getting enough calories/water so I can run tomorrow.
