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.

| 1:59:36 (1:03:11 out/56:24 back) 9:01/8:03. This was pretty amazing considering I felt like complete crap from the start. I was simply hoping to be able to run 9 min pace the whole run ... but somehow, I was able to pick it up at the turn-around. I think I am fighting a cold, and the lack of sleep of late is not helping my immune system. I have to work today, but first I need a burrito, then maybe a nap?? I am so impressed by everyones races yesterday! Yea fastrunning bloggers, you rock!!! Happy Sunday. | | Add Comment |

| 1:15:39. I don't know how long this was, I just know it was shorter than my usual ~9 mile course (based on Bonnie-9-min-mile pace) so I am calling it 8.5. I had a meeting that I had to run to so I had a shorter cool-down than usual. 10 x 45"w/2` recovery. 4 miles easy. | | Comments(3) |

| AM: (9 miles, 1:15:06). scheduled 'workout' was 80` with the last 20` @ MP. Ran an out-and-back route today - much hillier than my usual 9 miles, but I was in a hurry and this route avoids my horse friends Big Boy and Coco who would expect me to stop and feed them carrots if I went by their corral. I hit my usual little-longer-than-2-mile landmark in 18:12 (about 40 secs faster than usual), and my second landmark was a little more than a minute faster -- so I estimate I was running about 8:40-8:45 pace on the way out. Started to pick it up at the turnaround in such a way that I was down to MP by 20` out from my house. My little-longer-than-2-mile split on the way back was 15:22 (2:50 faster) -- I would guess I was somewhere between 7:25-7:30 pace -- which given the terrain (very hilly) was pretty good. Not really marathon pace - my marathon pace would be closer to 7:45-7:50 -- but good for a "workout".
PM: easy 4. Happy Thursday bloggers. | | Comments(2) |
