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: Went down to the North track for mile repeats. Today I bumped up the rest from 2 minutes to 3 minutes, but maintained my volume (5 miles) simply because I needed to get the mileage in somehow. I'm hoping this will help me become more prepared for the BYU workout. 2 mile warm up. I was shooting for 5:10s (5:08 through 1600 which is 77 second laps), and I ended up going 5:11, 5:11, 5:09, 5:08, and 4:55. Then I went on a 2 mile cooldown. The whole thing felt really good. I wasn't even that tired by like 20 minutes after my run. IR/IP/Strength
PM: 5 miles super hilly. Felt good.
Healthy Oatmel Recipe for Me: Oats, Soy milk, Cinnamon, Almond extract, frozen berries, and flaxseed. Mix it up and microwave.

| | AM: 5 miles. IR/T10/IP
PM: UH OH. I've been super stoked to not have been injured all summer despite the high mileage, but I had to shut it down after 3 miles tonight because of what I believe to be a retrocalcaneal bursitis problem. This is not good, and now is an awful time for this to happen. Hopefully I will feel better tomorrow.

| | AM: I did a new type of fartlek today. 36 minutes total after a 2 mile warm up, going 3 minutes running "up" (where I don't slouch and allow my body to relax and go slow) but not super hard- just like 6:30 pace. Then I would go 1 minute hard, which ranged from 6 minute pace up some hills to a 4:30ish pace hauling downhill. Very blessed to have been able to get back on track and do my full workout! 2 miles cooldown. IR/IP/T10
PM: 5 or 5 and a half miles fairly quick (even for a night run) because I ran with Luke.

| | Long run on Mount Ashland today. I tried to not stop at all but a few things came up (like a quick bathroom break and a very nearly sprained ankle) so I got through the first 110 minutes with only like three minutes of not running in between. Then my parents weren't back yet so I ran another 10 min to finish up 2 hours of very tough, hilly, running. 14 miles total.
