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 :)

7:08 pace, Falcon Heights route. It was a nice snowy Minnesota run on a gray late afternoon.

7:14 pace, east river road. It's hard to believe I slogged through that snow in the morning to avoid even more snow coming later. Still, I was a long ways away from preferring to be running inside.

Dumped some more snow last night. The roads appeared marginally run-able, but certainly not the sidewalks, especially as of the morning. So, treadmill day number 1.

7:02 pace, Como avenue to transitway and stadium to avoid snow. 9 degrees and overcast (again) but I felt surprisingly comfortable. As evidence of this, I looked at my watch once expecting it to be 22 minutes or so and it was actually 28. You would expect the time warp to be in the opposite direction on a new route if I were feeling uncomfortable for whatever reason. The only downside was that overall the air isn't great on that route, and I got a couple of face fulls of fumes from busses.

7:12 pace. I went on my Falcon Heights / Roseville route, not realizing I did that just on Monday. Oh well. You've got to find places that aren't too snowy. It started snowing on me at the end.

Treadmill run. It was -7 and I was tempted to run outside. Long runs are especially arduous on the treadmill, but at least I can run. And the new fans help for sure.
