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:

Sarah biked with me while I did a harder run today. On the way out I was telling her how I want to go easier this year to stay healthy, so as we ran north from the end of the bike path, she kept telling me to slow down. I didn't listen as much as I should have and went decently hard, so I decided to call it quits at 22 minutes instead of 25 as I had originally planned to avoid making it too hard. About 5:14 pace, which is the same speed I went for just two miles a while back. That's good news. 

PM: 5 miles.

11 miles. My achilles has felt a little rough the past couple days. I've really gotten to thinking about what my body can and cannot handle in terms of training. The situation with COVID is very unpredictable and so I don't know what to expect for this fall or winter really for team sports, but I just feel like doing high mileage with a long run and two workouts with the team is just a lot. I've had a good number of injuries and while each may have been due to one specific training mistake I made, I think they also related to just pushing my body too hard in general. So for after I graduate I think I may decide to do one workout a week and a long run. For this year maybe I'll just have to figure out how to really not push it too hard on our two workouts.
