Short-Term Running Goals: -Qualify for the 2024 Olympic marathon trials Long-Term Running Goals: -Run a few fast marathons. Grandma's, St. George, and Boston are on my target list. An Olympic Trials qualifier would be amazing.
-Break stroller records?
-Stay fit for a very long time. I believe what goes into making a competitive runner at age 60 is much different than age 20, just like what goes into making a good marathoner differs from a good sprinter. I hope that by taking care of my body, I can be very fast for my age as I get older.
Personal: I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I served a mission in Rome, Italy from 2015 to 2017. I eat a whole food, plant-based diet, which I believe helps my running. I like chocolate shakes on sunday nights and I will always call the Pacific northwest home. |

| | Even though there has been smoke this summer from Canada wildfires, it still feels like Spring here. I actually tied my shoes early on in my run because I was worried my hands would go numb later (they didn't). It was misting all morning and a great day to run to Tony Schmidt park. 6:18 pace apparently. Felt faster than that, although there are some slow sections.

| | Ran along Charles River. I had planned to stay on the south side but the north side seemed quieter so I switched to that instead.

| | Emerald necklace. This was the most fun I've had on a run at a conference. It is a really cool area with lots of green, streams, and a lake that I did a loop around at the end. It was hard to track mileage because there are multiple trails you can take through it.

| | Late afternoon run along the riverway in Boston. I made a couple of wrong turns; they weren't my fault though.

| | Great day for a run! Overcast and super clean air, smoke all gone. It was decently windy, but like...I was running 400s. Fast 400s, but they were over in a minute. 8x400 w/ 90 seconds rest, except ~3 minutes after the third rep when I switched into my flats. I ran (64, 65, 64, 64, 63, 63, 63, 62). I thought I had at least a 61 in me on that last rep, but oh well. Still a fun way of shaking up the norm.
