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. |

| | I drove down the hill to avoid making the firehouse loop too brutal and did it from the bottom of cherry. Felt alright for having run last night. 4 strides.

| | Ran with my friend Carmen, who recently finished her college running career. She ran a 2:08 800. It was weird running 8 minute pace, it was super easy. Afterwards I didn't feel like I had even run. I guess I'll keep that in mind if I ever need some serious recovery.

| | 8 mile "power" run, as it was described by my coach. Don't ask me what that means, probably just another term those crazy utahns made up ;) Anyway I ran 43:03 or 5:23 pace. I took splits every 2 miles: 10:37, 10:58, 10:44, 10:43. Pretty good overall but I really need to build some speed in addition to my endurance which is my forte right now.
Evening: 5 miles.
Notes: you always know things are going well when you PR in practice. My current 10K PR is 34:05 from the 2015 Rex Lee run. According to my pace I hit 10K in 33:27. Solid. Also, this is I believe my highest mileage day of all time. I just didn't feel comfortable doing any less warm up or cool down than I did this morning so that's how it ended up.

| | IT band felt a little sore today but I'll plan on taking an ice bag tonight. Other than that my overall energy level wasn't bad at all considering how hard and much I ran yesterday. 3 strides.

| | Roxy run felt really good. I wasn't very tired despite going farther than ever before (over three loops). Only problem was an IT band that felt at times tender. 6:42 pace was alright I guess.
