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 :) |

| | 6:39 pace, St A parkway. It was a great morning to be running. The clean air, blossoms and rain made it smell great outside.

| | 6:35 pace, Como classic-ish (looped around the park a different way). Felt tired and a little knee pain. I wonder if or when I will ever have that beat. Was a really nice day outside. It's getting to be that time of year when most days are like that. I definitely prefer the quieter runs I do in the mornings though, when there are less people, cars, and marijuana smoke.

| | This was my first time running west river north "extended edition", in which I found another shortcut such that I nearly made it to Olson park. Apparently I ran quite fast this afternoon even though I tried not to. Knee felt better.

| | 5:55 pace, Lake Johanna route. The past few weeks have been characterized by runs that felt tiring but were surprisingly quick. A few notes: 1) I didn't get out until 9:00, which resulted in there being more traffic in Roseville. I am definitely a fan of the 6:30-8:30 window for running. 2) My knee hurt a bit. That's a bummer. I decided to just do 3 wimpy strides on Como avenue at the end, rather than any sort of workout. 3) I forgot 2 things on my run. First, I stopped for a second, thinking I had taken a wrong turn (I hadn't). Second, for what I believe was the first time, I forgot to pick up a clothing item (gloves) that I had left behind early on.
