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. |

| | 4 mile tempo on west river road, starting at rec center. I am a little dissapointed with 5:07 pace as there wasn't really any good reason why I couldn't have gone faster. 155.

| | Probably should call it quits on these shoes but they keep doing fine. Was in the 50s and 60s when I ran today which made me sweat a lot. Looks like 5:57 pace overall. Splits of complete miles were: 6:21, 6:08, 5:51, 5:54, 6:33, 5:54, 5:52, 5:52, 5:57, 6:10, 4:55, 6:39, 5:15, 6:26, 6:06, 5:58. The two slowest splits were when I transitioned to Browns Creek trail, so probably just over a mile. As you can see, I threw in two hard miles. The first was uphill but with wind at my back. The second was overall probably flat but wind at my face, which is surprising since I hadn't changed directions or anything. I think especially for the first one the gel I took helped.
