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.

Thankfully, the rain got rid of the smoke and it was a nice grey run this morning. Felt good.

21 min of 5 min on, 1 min off. The last "hard" part was only three min since I got to a hill. I think about 5:30 pace overall, which means I was likely going 5:05 pace when I was "on" If I was 8 min pace on the "off". That is solid improvement. It didn't feel too hard, I just haven't gone fast in a while so I felt like I should.

AM: 10 miles on SF canal trail. It's been a while.

PM: 5 miles. 

Talked to coach about mileage today. He wants me to reign it in a little. It's probably for the best. I think he is a good coach for me because he is not like a "ra ra" type coach (most XC coaches aren't) but he really emphasizes being smart, healthy, and not pushing too hard, probably because I am not the first athlete he has had who likes to push really hard. So the "2000 miles to Nationals" plan will probably look a little more like "1900 miles to nationals", but that's ok.

Happy Fourth! 6:08 pace overall, about 6:28s on the way out (pretty windy today) and 5:45s on the way down.

Note to self: If you ever feel a little underhydrated on a Friday night, you need to pound the water for the next few hours. Drinking a lot on Saturday before you run will not do the trick. I was definitely dehydrated today.
