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:

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I live in the Twin Cities with my family and am an Epidemiology PhD Student. Running is the only hobby I have time for :)

9 miles past Home Depot. Felt good but decided to do strides Wednesday instead of today. 

Evening: felt blessed that the smoke went away enough that I could run outside. It's been really smoky the past few days. Ran 5 miles.

It felt good to be a little off the books in terms of pace for the first time in a while but I still feel like I gave my fartlek type workout a good solid effort. Not unlike when I did this at BYU, I went hard on the first portion. And I felt like I was flying. The next was a little rougher, then my speed built back up toward the end. It was 8-5-3-2-1 with 5-3-2-1 rest at Hawthorne. 

Evening: altitude camp begins! Just an overnight trip with my family but it's a great place for training at 4500-5000 feet, and boy did I feel it tonight! 5 miles recovery but my legs felt like jelly. Soon I'll get used to it though.

Felt good from the start today and was able to push the pace and finish my highest mileage week of all time! (80 miles). This was also my highest mileage run of all time. And it was the fastest I had ever run Roxy (6:28 pace- 7 seconds per mile faster than my previous PR). I felt super good in all ways until the end when my leg started hurting. Hopefully I can take care of it and it'll be fine by my workout on Monday.
