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  2025.

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

7:00am...I missed the text from Curt about running and went out for 2 miles with Moxie before Justin joined me.  As we were out, we ran into Curt, Alana and Gama and finished off our run together.   (Ride 3)

After church, Kami and I went to the gym and I did a good workout with weights...kinda made me miss when I lifted a lot more!

5am...4 easy miles with Moxie on a warmish but slick morning.  Left hammy and ankle tweaked a bit.  (Xodus)

A long travel day.  I was hungry by the time I got to the hotel and had to eat, then was too full, tired and too cold outside to run.  So I relaxed and watched part of the game.

Too cold outside to run and rested my ankle before a long day of meetings.  Got the hotel and ran 9 miles in 58 minutes on the TM.  Good to get it in tonight.  Heading home early tomorrow.  (Ride 3)

7 easy miles at lunch on a clear, cool and beautful day.  Legs still tweaked plus the Mirage are now retired after this run (likely at least one other pair as well).  (Mirage Red 14 last run)

6am...met Alana, Curt and Rex for a run.  A few miles with Alana and Rex then they turned around and Curt and I did a full river loop.  11 miles in 1:30+ just taking it easy and chatting and giving Curt a hard time for now joining the Master's ranks!  Happy birthday buddy!  Waited a bit to see if Justin wanted to run (no) then took Moxie out for 4 miles. 15 miles for the day.  (Ride 3)
