2 x Deseret News 10k winner

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.

I’ve got three 5ks in June-July.  The first two will be tempo runs.  But, I hope by Draper Days I will be ready to run a decent race. Cole has five weeks until nationals. In solidarity, I’ve decided to put in a good training block.

Long-ish run midweek.  75 minutes (well, 76 really). Hot and windy and unpleasant.  But, all done!

Recovery run today.  Felt better than I thought I would.  Short with strides tomorrow and “race” on Saturday.

SLCC run with 200 meter pushes at the end of every mile and a 1 minute push at the end of the run.  Plan is to tempo run the 5k tomorrow at 6:20 pace.  Happy to hit over 40 miles this week.  It’s been awhile!

Ran TVille Dayzz 5k this morning as a workout.  Plan was 6:20 pace.  Warmed up 2.5 miles.  Got out too hard. 6:02, then settled 6:18, 6:17.  Cole beat me by 7 seconds.  No time for cool down.  Had to make it out to Draper by 8 AM for rehearsal.
