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 :)

7:01 pace, farmer's fields. Surprised at my slowness again, but grateful that my body felt well.

Well, my pace was quicker today on Como lake loop (6:32), but it took a workout to make that happen. I did an "easy" workout of 2x(3,2,1). Fortunately, the worst parts for a workout (e.g., Como outdoor classroom) coincided with my recovery periods.

5:56 pace, Gateway. It was an unseasonably toasty late October morning. I was glad to get on the Gateway one more time before the leaves are gone. Speaking of them, I caught 3 today (season total: 5), including one on accident. I was reminded how these should cause bad blisters. I'm a little sad that this run was such a grind. I feel like I am a solid 10 seconds slower on long runs than I used to be. You could say maybe it was impacted by me starting at the Oakdale nature preserve due to a road closure, but I know what my trail splits were, and they were not as fast as they should have been for how hard it was. Splits: 5:55, 5:53, 5:55, 5:46, 5:50, 5:56, 5:58, 5:57, 5:53, 5:53, 5:48, 5:53.
