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

10 miles on a nice day around the greenbelt after church listening to Podcasts.  Sunny and a bit chilly but beautiful outside!  Good day at church faciliatating the first session of our parenting class and great worship. (Supernova Green)

3 miles in the late afternoon around then neighborhood. (Glide Boost)

Watched "Free Solo" last night. Wow, what singular focus on a goal/obsession.  Not sure I could/would do that approach to life but an intereting story.  Runner's culture is interesting, but climbing culture is a whole other territory.

A long night but the procedure went fine and no issues.  Hungry and a bit tired.

Slept in (plus it was raining outside this morning).  6.25 miles a nice day at lunch, warm but a bit windy.  Needed the run for stress relief but it did not help as I came within 2 feet of getting hit in a crosswalk but a yahoo in a 3/4 ton truck!  Pissed me off for the rest of the run.  (Guide White)

Heading to SLC to pick up Justin and a friend for spring break.  That drive sucked, the weather was horrible.
