10 x state champion in high school (way back in the day!)
3 x USA team member
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.
Another month. Another goal. Last month's goal was to run a consistent six days a week. This month's goal is to hit three 60 mile weeks in a row. This week is a down week. I just finished four weeks of 55 miles. Today was longer than planned. 6 miles solo and then a 5-4-3-2-1 breakdown with two minutes recovery for 3 more miles.
Planned on a hard workout today. But, I really needed an extra recovery day. Took Cole to run with Corner Canyon's cross country team and went for an easy run. I ran 2 miles solo and then ran the rest with Michele. 7:38 average.
Just helped with pace work for the Race Cats mile time trial today. Warmed up 2 miles. Paced the 5:45 group. Ran 5:44.95. Paced a couple laps for some of the other kids.
