Short-Term Running Goals: -Find some good local races to run that will motivate me to stay in shape. Long-Term Running Goals: -Run a few fast marathons. Grandma's, St. George, and Boston are on my target list.
-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 live in the Twin Cities with my family and am an Epidemiology PhD Student. Running is the only hobby I have time for :) |

| | 6:42 pace, Como classic rain route because I figured it would be muddy from the melted snow. Felt great outside.

| | Another warm day made good conditions for a workout. Until now, I have specifically not looked to see my pace because I knew how slow it was. Now, with February closing out, I wanted to know my pace so we can start getting serious about fitness. Alas, I am starting from a pretty low level right now. Thankfully, my knee felt pretty solid today. I did 8-mile-8-mile with 90 seconds rest in 2:26, 5:00, 2:28, 4:57. It wasn't all out but boy it wasn't easy. Wind was pretty strong. Nice to be on the track!

| | 5:57 pace, Gateway to Browns creek trail. It was probably the coldest I've ever run on the trail (15 degrees to start) but was very sunny, and the trees always block the majority of the wind. I did 3x3 minutes on, with rest until the end of the mile, on the way back. Only a few ice patches, most was completely clear. It took a while to kind of clear my gut and get rolling. Recorded miles: 6:18, 6:10, 5:52, 6:01, 6:34 (not a mile), 5:47, 5:51, 5:45, 5:53, 5:59, 5:39, 6:30 (not a mile), 5:48, 6:11, 6:03, 6:05. My knee started hurting a bit at the very end. Considering how long I ran and how previous LRs have gone, I feel very good about that.
