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.

2:02:43. Ran in the flattest place we know of in Flagstaff ... still at 8000ft, but except for a few rollers, pretty nice and flat. I ran the last 20` - 30` hard, probably not as fast as last weeks run, but hard. Sad to leave Flagstaff ... we really love it there. Had a great dinner with Greg and his family on Saturday - talked about running, coaching and life. Have a great week bloggers. | | Comments(4) |

| AM: (10 miles, 1:27:07) 9 miles pretty easy and then 8 x 100 m strides. Didn't feel very comfortable today, I was going a little fast to my first landmarks, finally got it down to a reasonable pace, but still didn't feel like I was "in the groove". PM: (4 or 4.5 miles easy, in the park, likely in the dark). Have a great day bloggers. | | Comments(4) |

1:02:23 (31:48/30:35).
Felt a little better today, though I am very tired. I am just so busy at work these days.
Have a great hump-day bloggers! | | Comments(1) |

| AM: (8.5 miles, 1:13:47). 6 x ~200 m hill repeats. 30:33 wu/29:29 cd. Even though I felt like I was crawling up the hill this was actually my best hill workout on this hill. The first and last were :59 seconds, most o of the middle ones were 1:00 (with one 1:03 -- I think I fell asleep ;-) ). PM: (4 or 4.5 miles, easy).
I have meetings all day, but I hope to get caught up on blog comments today ... I miss you guys.

1:02:53 (31:53/31:10 -- second split included a short bathroom break). Felt very good today. I am a little surprised since I ran pretty hard yesterday morning and I wore my Nike free's for both runs (I am having shoe difficulties right now - since all of the shoes that usually have in my rotation have been "upgraded" and don't seem to work as well for me - why do they do that?). I got even more stuff piled on my plate yesterday -- there are a couple of very big grants that the cancer center is submitting and I am in charge of a couple of analytic parts of them. And, supposedly two papers that we are working on have to be submitted very soon, as there are some of our competitors from MD Anderson that are getting ready to submit similar results. The first one to print "wins" ;-). Happy Friday bloggers.

| AM: (9+ miles, 1:22:07). 8 miles easy + 8 x ~100 m strides. Felt pretty good, a little stiff, but ok. Dean went up to see the magic ART guy today. I wanted to go ... but, as usual, I have to work, and I want to get started packing a little. We are closing on our new house next week and moving in 2 weeks!! yikes. PM: (4 - 4.5 miles). I want to go to my favorite place to run this evening, but I am not sure I will have the time ... Happy weekend bloggers. Best wishes to the racing bloggers!! | | Comments(3) |
