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.

Tempo run time. I started at North Phoenix/ Barnett and ran towards Bear Creek. In other words, I was running downhill. Plus (confession time) I was running in front of cars and basically ended up hauling for about 10 minutes. Alas, the dream came to an end and I ended up pushing my tired legs and panting my way for another 17 minutes before I planned on the fly to call it quits at 4.5 milesish. Hopefully I can get better. Core/T10

uh oh. Once again I miscalculated and did over 9 miles up by the Lighthearts. And once again my bursa (and this time my knee, too) were feeling tender. Maybe it's the steepness of the hill. Felt a little tired today. T10/core

Ran a 3 minutes hard, 2 minutes recovery (but still "up") fartlek. Having learned my lesson from Monday, I made a simple goal to finish faster than I started. It worked! I did 5 miles, but only got the splits for miles 1,2,4 and 5. They were 6:15, 6:05, 6:00, 5:50. Then my knee started hurting bad ended my cool down early.

Had to shut it down after 5 because of bad IT band pain.

I believe I did 10.5. It band pain is a lot worse downhill so I ran up Roxyann fine and coming down it hurt so it took it really slow. This has definitely taught me A lesson. I had not been taking care of my body on a strength and injury prevention standpoint. A few minutes of core a day just doesn't suffice. So I made a new goal to do strengthening and IP stuff for 20 minutes a day. I'm confident that soon I'll be strong and injury resistant.
