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.

4 mile tempo run on the greenway with a three mile warmup and cool down. 21:41 or 5:25 pace. I only checked my time at mile 2, so I could be going off of feel rather than pace. Because of that my splits were actually pretty smart, all between 5:23 and 5:27. 

PM: 5 mile shakeout in Portland.

10 mile run in Portland through the streets and then at Mt. Tabor park. It was good. You always feel a little out of it on vacation just because you're out of your routine. But there's no reason why this week of training can't be very beneficial as long as I make sure to get proper rest and do my supplemental exercises.

Nice run on a long smooth Forrest road. After logging it it seems I was kind of going quick (6:25 pace) and ended up running like 10.8 miles. Cool I guess.

Fartlek run. I really wanted to run the up sections not all out but at race pace, like 5 minutes/ mile. Went 5 off, 2 on after a three mile warmup. Felt pretty strong.

Wow, awesome way to finish vacation. Yesterday I was a bit bummed about the whole way out being downhill and way back uphill. So I decided to run on a different road that initially led up. And up. And up. At times it got fairly steep and I had no idea when it would end. But I sure love running up mountains, so this was perfect for me. Almost got to Lolo pass. About a 2000 foot elevation gain. Beautiful view of Mt. Hood and a little waterfall shower on the way back. On the return trip I realized there were even markers every tenth mile. On the way out I had slightly overestimated my pace so I did about 15.3 miles total at just under 6:45 pace.
