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.

Ran almost the same exact route as Saturday except from home. Feels like a quick way to run 9 miles, kind of in the same way as my MLR in Mapleton did. Still felt tired but better. 6:46 pace despite the hills.

Super pretty spring day to run along west river road via dinkytown greenway, and at the end on the trail to the side of it. Started out pushing the stroller so I estimated my first 5 minutes or so, but overall would've been about 6:42 pace and felt really good.

Cooler morning. I instantly clicked into a faster pace today. Measured one mile using mile markers lining a race course they are doing today by East River road in 5:40, but that felt fast. Turns out I still went 5:48 pace overall in a solid but not out of the ordinary longer run effort. That mile was the hilliest mile of the day. Today was the Fargo marathon and while this had nothing to do with why I went faster, I wonder how I would've done. The marathon winner was 2:29 and half winner was 1:07. I definitely feel more recovered than after my last 10K, but I'm not sure I could've won the half (and I really can't presume to guess the marathon as I have never run that distance before).
