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. |

| | 8 miles at pretty easy 7 minute pace. 4 quick strides, then some plyo, which included some brutal core work I wasn't used to. IR

| | 3 mile warm up and then a really weird workout... I thought it was gonna be on the track but of course they always pick super tough hilly grass courses with lots of tight and sometimes random turns. It was a 5k and a 2 mile with some more weirdness: each lap was like easy-hard-easy-hard-hard and it made like no sense. The "easy" was supposed to be like "less hard" though. I felt ok but not great about it. 16:59 for the 5k and then 10:56 for the 2 mile. Then a 2 mile cool down. My first weights session afterward, it was pretty tough.

| | Hard workout today at Kiwanis. I have a very legitamate theory that flats are super helpful and that I am screwed on all the grass workouts by more than I thought by being the only one who wears hefty trainers. You can literally line up all my workouts from best to worse and the best ones (Mile repeats on track first day, Hobble Creek Canyon, First hard long run) are on a hard surface, while my worst ones (Today, 5k/2 mile, 1k repeats, 1200 breakdown) have all been on annoying grass! I also did well at the Autumn Classic, but that was using a nice pair of spikes.
4 by mile with 4 minutes rest. 5:08, 5:04, 5:09, 4:57. More than a three mile warm up and cooldown including strides made 11 miles overall.

| | 15 mile long run in 89:41. A few seconds slower than last week but I'm totally fine with that because it was raining pretty hard especially on the way out and people weren't really pushing the pace so it felt pretty easy. At one point on the way back I had to go out and run in front because it was so slow. We didn't start really pushing till a mile and half out or so. Calve pain is still there a bit. IR/IP/T10
