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 :)

6:45 pace, east river flats again. I went there because the rain was coming down pretty hard initially. I actually didn't feel that cold somehow.

I was going to work out on the roads, but knew that I would work harder if I was on the track. I ran 5 by 1600 w/ 2 minutes rest, except after rep 3 when I took 5 minutes because of a pit stop. It's nice to work out on a cool May afternoon, but there are reasons why it'll be nice to focus on morning workouts in the future. I ran 4:57, 4:57, 4:56, 4:55, 4:51.

Ran from Jamaca ave on to the Gateway and then home. According to MMR it was 5:55 pace, although my mile splits were just under 6 on the Gateway, and I thought I was slower after that. On the one hand, I was thinking during the run that we live in the coolest place ever, as it was an awesome, awesome route to take on a quiet Saturday. This was dampened a bit by feelings of hitting the wall that got stronger at the end. Maybe it was because I didn't start until 9:00 after the race. Also, I came home and had lost a lot of weight. Even though I had shade and the temp was only in the 50s, I felt like I sweat a fair amount. But I was definitely burnt by the end.
