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.

35 degrees when I woke up which was a little colder than I had hoped, but nothing compared to the 15 degree weather my poor teammates were running in in Utah. Seriously, it is so much easier to be a serious runner on the west coast than other parts of the U.S. 

We did a 10 mile power run. I feel good about it because I feel pretty healthy afterwards which was my main goal, and each mile was faster than the previous one up until mile 10, which means I did a good job running within myself.  I ran past some fire damage on the bike path but thankfully I didn't have to turn around early- just did 5 miles goin south and back from Bear Creek park. 

Supposed to do 2 x 6:00, 2 x 5:40, 2 x 5:20, 2 x sub 5:10, 2 x sub 5:00. I ran [5:50, 5:44, 5:37, 5:33, 5:14, 5:10, 5:04, 5:04, 4:58, 5:01]. Averaged 5:20 for 10 miles, 5:12 for the last 8 miles. 5:03 for the last five miles. Overall that's pretty good. I love this type of workout. It reminds me I think of the importance of "warming up" to a fast pace. Like I sincerely don't know if I could have done a five mile tempo at the pace of the last five miles, especially given my previous workouts here.

Tired, but glad my knee felt good. I had to sacrifice skiing today and doing my run on RoxyAnn to take care of it, but you've gotta do what you gotta do.
