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.

| Wonderful run! I can't believe how good this run felt, despite not eating much yesterday (airport food is really horrible - so I did not eat), and not sleeping much. I ran a hilly run, some on the road, some on the trail, and felt amazingly strong the whole time. I was happy to weight myself afterward - even though Dean said that was dumb ;-), my dumbself was happy with the numbers! | | Comments(4) |

| Happy Thanksgiving! I am so very thankful that Dean, and I, and our family, are healthy, and that I am running. So, I am re-arranging my schedule this week so we can go to some friends house for thanksgiving dinner. It was pretty much impossible for me to fit in two runs, and get to their house early ... so, I will back-load the mileage (added stress for long run - I will be tired going into it, not always a bad thing). I was happy to see my time today - my schedule called for 80 mins with the last 20` at 1/2 marathon effort. I did not feel very good going into this run, I am not sure why, probably late start and poor eating last week. So, after the run I looked at my watch and saw that the last 2 + a little miles were in 15:30 (my easy run pace for this segment is ~18:50) - so it was pretty close to 7:20 pace with stupendeous hills. I was pretty happy! Now I feel even thankier than before! | | Comments(2) |
