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 Favorite Blogs: |

| Woke up early, did some work then went to a discussion group over coffee.
Went for a run at 9am, beautiful and perfect morning (brisk, sunny...nice). 10 miles total, 6 miles with Moxie then 4 miles solo. Awesome run to think about work and had a few epiphanies on staffing and next year's goals and focus. (React Black)

Work stresses...in the words of Rob Lowe/Chris Traeger, my head "literally" blew up due to frustration...led to words coming out...led to home stress...led to a 4 mile run to clear my head. (Glide Black)

| Told cold outside early this morning, so did some early work before meeting friend's for coffee (great discussion!). Then went to work for a few hours.
Got home and went for a run before my head exploded. 7 miles with Moxie. Sometimes I hate my job, less than 3.5 years to retirement and it cannot come soon enough. (Fastwitch White)

Moxie became my best running buddy 11 years ago. Since then, we are over 11,500 miles of running together...and she is still eager every day to go run!

| Our friend Erik T. was staying with us on his way to MN. Great to run with an old friend who I haven't seen in a while. Easy 6.5 miles to SRL and back...Erik is a 2:19:30 marathoner who is taking a break from competition due to busyness in life, glad we got out to just chat a bit.
5.5 miles with Moxie after Erik left. (React Blue)

| Flew to AZ to help parents move in stuff from their old house.
Got the Camaro out for a drive for the first time in several months. She was mad! Needs to drive more regularly. Once I got her pampered, we drove to Canyon Lake then to Goldfield Ghost town. Afterwards, drove to Mesa to visit with Marlin and Mauri.
Too much fun today, no run!

| More walking than any running due to being busy and my hip really hurting so I am going to rest it a bit this week and walk instead of run. I think I have hip bursitits.
8 miles around the neighborhood in the warm sun and perfect weather before helping with the unloading of stuff from Idaho. (Solana Tigers)
