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.

Great workout today. It was hot outside but I didn't really feel it. I also didn't feel tired from the previous week. We went to the legendary intramural fields and did a 5K mostly alternating every 400 meters between "hard" and "recovery", which was still pretty fast- it was supposed to be in the 5 minute range, but 10 seconds per lap slower than the fast 400. I really liked the workout this time. I ran 16:25 for the 5K. Then we took a ten minute break and ran a 2 mile in similar fashion. I hit 10:22 for that one.

We did a 4-3-2-1 fartlek with 3-2-1 rest at Kiwanis park. Feels weird that this isn't my strength right now. I won't lie, the thought has run through my head: "Am I really a miler?" Then again, how many times since my mission have I run anything speed oriented? Not many. Oh well, time will tell. In my opinion it was just the right effort for three days before a race.

Someone once said in a flo track video something along the lines of: "the problem with setting high goals is that you get knocked down a lot". Honestly I shouldn't complain, I'm in pretty good shape for being just a few months off my mission running XC which I'm less good at than track. But, being me, I was kind of bummed haha. Oh well, back to the grind, hopefully I'll continue to watch my fitness improve during cross and get to the point where I can get some big PRs in track.
