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. |

| | By the time I got home the wind was apparently 10 mph, but I have to say, I thought to myself during the workout that it was relatively calm for being March! I did 2x(1600, 800, 800) with 2 min between reps and 3 min between sets. Turned out to be 3 min after one rep b/c I saw my old coach and 3:30 between sets as I took my tights off. It's really interesting how doing something like that will actually make your next rep, or at least the start of it, slower. I wonder if my body kind of just forgets it is a workout and loses some of its sharpness. Goal pace was 5:00 and 2:25. I ran 4:57, 2:24, 2:23, 4:54, 2:25, 2:18. The last one I did normal first lap then 66 for the second lap. So yes I have a long way to go but I feel like I'm making progress.

| | Weird. Felt pretty darn tired today, but I still ran 6:39 pace on east river road, which I don't think is a record but is getting close to it. Recently my body seems to have forgotten how to chill.

| | 6:13 pace on the way out, but I did almost all of the detours. On the way back I did 6x2 minute on, 1 minute off again. It was either 5:39 pace or 5:20 pace overall. Honestly, with a cold headwind going that direction, it was a good way to pass the time. 6:04 pace overall on the way back. Felt slow as a sloth after the workout but I think at some parts I was going a decent pace. West river road to lake Hiawatha.
