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.

AM: 5 miles. IR/IP/Strength

PM: 5 miles with Harrison. Didn't feel super fast on either run which is a tad disapointing as I had a nearly 48 hour break from my long run Saturday, so I would expect to be quick. But this happens pretty often so I'm not super worried. I'm going easy today because my hard workout will be tomorrow at the Bear Creek 5K. This is the second of two races I planned for this summer (the first was a 35:51 10K in Utah on July 4th). So hopefully I will feel well tomorrow.

AM: 5 miles easy. Felt super tired. Before I did anything else I just lay on the floor for a while. I had second doubts about going to the race in the evening, and the storm that rolled in didn't help. IR/T10/ IP

PM: Decided to do the race. Extra warm up (about 2 miles total) because the race was 30 min later than I expected. The race felt like crap. I wish I could say it was just the first part of my hard workout, and to the outside observer of my workout that may look true, but I went pretty hard on the (in fairness, pretty hilly and tough) course and got 16:46. Super ticked. Within one minute I started my post race workout which was 32 minutes with a one minute hard- one minute easy cycle. I went about 4.5 miles with the easy about 9 min pace and the hard 5 min pace. That helped my mood a little bit after the tough race. 2 mile cool down.

AM: Tempo Run. 2 mile warm up. 5 miles hard. 3 miles cool down. Felt tired again. It's interesting though that although I have felt really crappy this week, the past couple times I have actually checked my pace instead of just estimating (with the exeption of the race) I have been pleasently surprised by my performances. IR/IP/T10

PM: 5 miles. This felt a little bit easier. With the exception of hard workouts, my mileage right now is almost exclusively hills which makes it harder than it would otherwise be.

PM: 5 miles with Harrison. Didn't feel amazing or anything but having that distraction made it seriously feel like I was running for five minutes which was awesome.

Today was a long run, and it felt great! I was only able to do 13 miles because I had a commitment in the morning and I slept in a little, but it was nice to feel good and not constantly be thinking about how tired I was even though I was on my own. I had a lot of fun and went fast at the same time! Instead of doing the last two miles later in the day I opted to call it a week. IR/IP
