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.

| Not as slow as one would have imagined, but not quick either :-) again, just happy to be out there! I am on the mend. Now, we wait to see if the drugs work (supposed to take up to a month), hopefully with few side effects!
Happy Sunday bloggers!

| Working to get back! I don't think I will run doubles this week, but I will give it a shot next week. Started my methotrexate this week (it is a once/week drug), hit me hard today (pretty much expected-as that is what they told me to expect), but I am hoping tomorrow will be better. I have to take prescription folate every day, I might try upping my current dose to see if it helps with the fatigue ... We'll see, hoping the treatment isn't worse than the disease :-) . I just wanna run, bloggers!
Hope you are running well!

| Do you what day it is? Oh yes, you do, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWBhP0EQ1lA
I ran by one my old friends Dover the horse today! I haven't been running this route because I have been too busy (I am usually in a huge hurry in the mornings) - well, I am going to make time. Darn it, life is just too precious to miss out on little things you enjoy. Like keeping track of you all!!!
I won't lie, I am sort of dragging through my runs this week. I am super tired during the day, wake up in the middle of the night because of the pain in my back, and I can't tell what is from just getting back from my severe intestinal problems from last week, from the arthritis, and what are side effects from the methotrexate. But, I can run, and I am grateful for that! My main goal this week is 90 min run on Sunday!
Have a good rest of the week bloggers!

| Boring, slow, but it is cooling off here in the mornings (probably 85F or so today, yes!)
