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.

Still on recovery.  Five easy and roll out.  I can finally go down stairs front ways not sideways.

Mini workout on the tready.  I slept in this morning.  Progression run with hill repeats.   For the first 30 minutes, I threw in a 3% incline for two minutes, every ten minutes.  I increased pace .1 every song.  After thirty minutes, I did a hill repeat every five minutes instead.   I still increased the pace after every song.  When I finished, I had completed 7 2 minute hills at 3% incline.  At that point I was down to 6:27 pace.  I stopped when I felt like I was starting to work too hard.  I'm still getting over the half marathon.   This week will be relatively easy.  Next week I start a 20 week marathon training program.
