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:

6:44 pace, Como lake loop. Knee didn't feel great, which was too bad, because it was a beautiful day outside.

6:52 pace, west river road. My normal route to do west river (via bridge 9) is currently closed, but I decided I don't mind going via the M bridge. During the mornings campus is pretty quiet and I get to run further on WRR. It also changed things up from dinkytown greenway.

Today was probably my most enjoyable run in a while. Despite doing a workout, my knee felt pretty good, and I was able to enjoy a sunny spring afternoon running around St Paul campus, which is already pretty quiet. I decided to do a 10-5-3-1 workout (5-3-1 rest) after I realized that 10-5-4-3-2-1 is actually a pretty high mileage workout by my current standards, even though it doesn't sound like it would be. I did it on a loop that included the fairgrounds, St Paul campus, and Como avenue. I only tracked pace for the 10 minute rep, which was bang on 5 flat pace.

5:53 average, Gateway trail. For some reason I forgot that the full route was 19 miles. Today was one of those days where you just had to be outside enjoying Minnesota so right after I came home we went biking, and then went to an outdoor party after that. I'm tired! Knee felt solid. Splits: 4:13, 6:23, 6:15, 5:56, 6:00, 5:59, 5:54, 5:54, 5:52, 4:11, 4:10, 5:42, 5:39, 5:51, 5:52, 5:45, 5:56, 5:52, 5:50, 3:50.
