Short-Term Running Goals:

Keep on running, enjoy it for the sake of running, relax and enjoy life...de-stress.  Stay fit as I enter retirement in < 4years.

No racing, retired.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running until this old body says no, running for fun.

Personal:

 I started running competitively in 2005 and ran my first marathon in 2005. Now retired from competitive racing.

Bend down, O Lord, and hear my prayer;

answer me, for I need your help.
Protect me, for I am devoted to you.
Save me, for I serve you and trust you.
You are my God.
Be merciful to me, O Lord,
for I am calling on you constantly.
Give me happiness, O Lord,
for I give myself to you.
O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive,
so full of unfailing love for all who ask for your help.
Listen closely to my prayer, O Lord;
hear my urgent cry.
I will call to you whenever I’m in trouble,
and you will answer me.  - Psalm 86:1-7

8am...ran 7 miles to the river (via SRL) and back with Moxie after dropping Katelyn off at her relay race. (Altra Impulse)

Katelyn asked me to run her leg with her so I did, 5 miles with big rollers. Tough leg for her.  Then I ran down the backside of the hill to meet Hank and run him back up the hill (2.25 miles).  Finally ran to get McKenna and help her to the end of her leg (0.5M).  (Supernova Green)

Then back home for yardwork. Now I am tired and in need of a beer.
