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:

6:55 pace, east river road. I was surprised I went that fast given that the vast majority of the run was essentially in total darkness. Running in the dark is fun to do once in a while, not every day. It had just rained.

Another damp, cool morning run at 6:56 pace. Como lake loop this time.

6:31 pace overall. I ran east on Como to the hill on Wheelock in the overcast pre-dawn again. On the way back I did 2x(1 mile float, 1 mile hard) and apparently only managed 5:37 pace combined? I was thinking I was doing something like 5:00/5:45. Generally a miscalculation would be overestimating my speed though. Even without that ugly performance, I don't regret at least doing it.

6:56 pace on another run in the dark, this time west river north. On the way back I tried to do a bit of the Winchell trail. My ankles are still intact but I think it was a little too dark to have done that.

7:01 pace, Cleveland ave. Another run in the dark.  Happy to be out of my old shoes so I can use those to walk in.

Overcast morning. Leaves are mostly fallen now. Nice to be running not in the dark. West River road, Ft Snelling fork. Got to run all of Pelham today! 5:59 pace. That's probably not bad, given that I took the side routes that you can take after crossing on Lake street.
