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 :)

Just under 7 minute pace, just me and the girls on east river road. I haven't lived here for that many years but it's interesting that we've had like nonstop summer weather all the way until now. Things will finally change next week.

Abotu 6:09 pace overall. This was my longest point to point ever- from my apartment all the way out of the twin cities to Sunnybrook apple orchard. The conditions were great for a really fun run, but unfortunately I did not enjoy it as much as I could have, because ominous clouds moved in from the northwest, and eventually a drizzle came, followed by a rain. I think I was sort of following the course of the storm. This was concerning to me as the reason for the point to point was to meet up with my family to pick apples, and I was worried as I had no phone or anything. At its worst, I was in Oakdale and there were rivers of water on the ground, saturating rain from the sky, and even some hail that came right when I was least sheltered by trees. Thankfully, my family still came, and the rain died down and completely soon thereafter so we could enjoy ourselves. It was cool to run so many miles on the gateway.
