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.

| I am not sure how long this run was, but it took me 2:36 mins ... I think it was around 17+ and it was super super hilly. It was happy it was done, but I was also happy I finished strong uphill the last 2 miles!! So lucky. | | Add Comment |

| AM: (9 miles, 1:20:32). 10 x 1` w/1` recovery -- from the pages of this months Running Times! In his article this month, Greg talks about using these for "speedsters" like himself (speedsters are people who are stronger at fast short races/training but don't feel as comfortable at longer stamina types of races/training -- converse to speedsters are "endurance monsters") as an alternative to tempo runs. For people like me, who prefer longer-stamina type workouts, he uses these workouts to prepare your muscles (neuro-muscular) for speed-based workouts, sort of like hill repeats. This workout is harder than it looks, especially if you go out too fast on the first couple! PM: easy 4. Hope all is well with you bloggers!! | | Add Comment |
