26.2: 2:37:45 (2019 Mesa Phoenix) Short-Term Running Goals: Stay healthy!
2019 Running Schedule
Feb - Mesa Phoenix Marathon (AZ): 2:37:45. Lingering flu didn't help, but I still got a PR.
April - Bonneville Shoreline Trail Marathon (UT). Mostly just going to be a training run. Finally got myself into the sub-4 club last year, so I'll just have fun with it this year.
May - Stillwater Half Marathon (MN). Goal race for Spring. Looking for ~1:12.
October- Chicago Marathon (IL). We'll see where I'm at in Fall, but probably will be looking for low 2:30s. Long-Term Running Goals: Stay healthy, make improvements, maximize my potential. Personal: I am a bioengineering PhD currently working as a post-doctoral research fellow in the Department of Neurology at the University of Utah, where I design and improve neurosurgical approaches for treating movement disorders.
Summer 2018 update: I'm lazy about copying over from Strava, so find me over there for day-to-day runs until I eventually get around to copying everything over here.

| BPRB to dry creek to unkelf er turn off, back down a half mile, up little black, back to JCC. HR got up to 186. I'm not good at doing this climb without pushing myself up Unkelf er.

| 7:39 AP. Wanted to run on Legacy Parkway, but it was close throughout the entire Foxboro portion, so I just ran through that neighborhood and then turned back at the end.

| San Diego for SFN. 9 miles at 7:30 AP near the water. The altimeter on my fitbit (counts in 10 foot increments) registered a total elevation gain of zero feet of gain during the run. Nice and flat, and it felt pretty easy, which is nice. Sea level is always a nice adjustment, especially at easy pace (especially welcome when I'm extremely out of shape). My run one week ago at 4500' was at a substantially higher effort for a pace 9 seconds per mile slower over a distance couple miles shorter, despite a perfectly straight path and not having to zig zag around people left and right (admittedly, that run had a little under 100' of elevation gain and loss over 7 miles, worth about 2-3 seconds per mile). Aerobic runs at sea level are awesome.

| Maui! Kapalua Villas to DT Fleming Beach up most of the way up the Mahana Ridge trail and back after eating a turkey sandwich to celebrate Thanksgiving (well, I won't celebrate white men illegally immigrating to America and slaughtering natives, but at least I can celebrate all of the things I have to be thankful for). The trail was an absolute blast and the views of the Honokohua Gulches were spectacular. Utah has pretty incredible trail running, so when I have that experience in mind and am still dumbfounded by the beauty of trails elsewhere, you know that they must be amazing. The full trail plus the Arboretum trail will be 16-17 miles, tacking on getting to the beach trailhead from where I'm staying, and I'll try to get out to do the full thing on Sunday. Tomorrow, we're going to Iao Valley and then horseback riding, and Saturday we're hiking Haleakala, so Sunday will be the first day that I'll have a long enough window during the day. |
