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.

After running with the fam, I found that east river flats was finally flooded. Interesting.

6:35 pace coming back from boom island. I don't have splits for going out because I took a spill on the bridge to the island. It's crazy I didn't fall all winter and then this happened. I cut my knee somewhat but the clotting worked well and I was able to finish going out and then come back without having issues. Just some minor scrapes on the hands.

I have been feeling sick the past couple days (better today though) which caused poor sleep, plus I feel like my body needed a little to recoup from my LR, so I pushed my workout back to today and was looking for something chill. This meant avoiding the track. I settled on 2 X campus loop, where you start and end on dinkytown greenway and run down to river flats, then back up on Oak street like normal. This is 2.45 miles. I ran 12:26 and 12:13, with 3:30 rest in between and each rep I had to stop twice for a traffic light for 5-30 seconds or so. This was 5:04 pace and 4:59 pace. Used the new scale today and weighed 156.0 (protocol: before drinking after the run).

Almost unbelievable 6:28 pace on a perfect sunny morning on farmers fields. I felt tired today but didn't feel like going slower. I don't think I've run under 6:30 pace over an entire normal easy day in years. I know it's just a run but I sure hope this type of thing somehow translates to better performance when it really counts.

6:06 pace on west river road. 6:00 pace coming back. It was a perfect morning- sunny and 50 degrees or so. Great way to enjoy the side trails of WRR for the first time since the bloom. Felt tired today, at least near the beginning. The goal was to just take it really chill. I'm surprised I went as fast as I did with having done the side trails. 

Totally unintentional but this is the highest mileage week I've done this year by 0.75 miles. The LR is the reason. The standard deviation of my weekly mileage has been really low thus far.
