Short-Term Running Goals:

Train for as solid a race in Boston 2011 as my schedule will allow. Accept the fact that there isn't room in my life to train for a breakthrough performance and do the best I can under the circumstances.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Lose the all-or-nothing mentality and start using running as an outlet instead of an additional source of stress.

Personal:

I'm married with 4 kids (2 boys, 2 girls) and live in Salt Lake City, where I work as a real estate attorney.

Let me have men about me that are fat,
Sleek-headed men and such as sleep a-nights.
Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look,
He thinks too much; such men are dangerous.

"Julius Caesar," Act I, scene 2, 190-95

I went to a new chiro today to see if he could help with my back issues. The adjustment took him about 5 minutes and when he yanked my left leg, there was an audible crack in my SI joint. It was tremendously satisfying. The SI joint was kind of sore most of the day, but sore in a healing kind of way, not an aching kind of chronic way.

Anxious to try out the new back, I brought my gear with me when I drove my son's soccer carpool to Orem and went for short jog while they warmed up. SI joint was still somewhat sore from the adjustment, but there was none of the usual pain. However, about 3.5 miles in, my left quad kind of seized up, so I ended up walking the rest of the way. I'm not concerned about it, as it felt like one of the predictable post-marathon pains that goes away after a day or two.
