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. |

| | 2 by 2 mile @ intramural field, wheel measured, in trainers.
First rep: 10:02. Felt pretty good.
Second "hollow" rep (hard first and last 800): went out in 2:20, felt pretty trashy after having done that, mile at 4:55, finished in 9:54.
Might have liked to gone a little slower, but our team is in an interesting boat right now where it appears that there is a Mantz/Casey group, a pretty much everyone else group, and then a few stragglers who do middle distance and shouldn't feel bad at all about falling behind. In other words, I couldn't just chill further back with someone else cuz although I'm not sure because I'm pretty focused during the workout, I don't think there were many people spread out behind me.

| | Workout. I didn't expect to do the same thing the traveling people were doing. So this was my first track work I have done in a long time (nearly a year) and certainly a fast way to begin track work, especially on the 400s. My foot bones started hurting a bit and my achilles tendon ached a tad near the end so I did my last 400 on grass. I hope I feel better. Last time I really hurt my achilles was after doing fast track stuff for the first time in a while.
5:00 grass mile, 2:17 grass 800, 2:09 track 800, 65 grass 400, 61 track 400, 60 track 400, 64 grass 400. 2:30-3 min rest.

| | 16.6. miles, 6:34 pace, achilles still feeling tight. Last night we were at the store and I got a calf massage using this device. It was really nice, I wish I owned something like that. On the run the sun didn't rise until 8:30 when I was in Spanish Fork and then by the time I got back to east Mapleton it went behind the mountain again, and then it came up yet again when I got near my house (this is at almost 10:00).
