Short-Term Running Goals:

I would like to run an Olympic Trials Qualifier in the marathon.

I would also like to run on one more international team before I pack it in!

 Stay healthy!  (My biggest challenge!)

Long-Term Running Goals:

Run my whole life, and then live vicariously through my children. (just kidding) , but I do want to pass on a healthy lifestyle to them.

Help coach East High to a state championship. (hope it doesn't take a lifetime!)

Personal:

I've been running since I was nine.  I'm married to a fellow runner who inspires and supports me.  We have two children:  Cole (4) and Lily (18 mos.)  I help Bill Cobler coach cross country at East High School.

AM: Short run. Double day. 5.3 neighborhood miles. School traffic is horrible. Nobody watches out. 7:16 average. The weather was perfect this morning.

PM: I thought I would feel terrible. I couldn't go run until 6:30 tonight. I hated waiting all day. I actually felt really good. Especially for five days post race. Your body is definitely more warmed up in the evening. It also helped that I had a brandnew iiPod shuffle! Good music makes the run enjoyable. 6:48 average. I may regret that pace tomorrow.

I agree! School traffic is THE WORST! Be careful.
