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

5 miles early before work. (Glide Black)

A 6.5 magntitude earthquake rocked the entire state of Idaho last night. Centered near Sun Valley (the hot spot for COVID-19 as well).  We felt it here but just minor and no issues. Interesting times...focus on what is important in our lives, relationships to each other and the Lord.

Really pissec off right now.  Saw that Sam's club had toilet paper so went to get some...gone.  People had 2-3 cases (50 rolls per case) in their carts..why at a time of shortage does management allow this?  Assholes (lanaguage on purpose).  Then came home to go for a lunch run, got 1/2 mile out and Moxie was attacked by a loose dog, had to beat it off with my lease and kicking at it.  What the F%@&?  Lease you dog or put them in the backyard.  Even in my neighborhood now I have to regularly deal with this shit.  Trying to calm down before my conference call so will try to run again after work.

2 inches of new snow on the lawn and icy roads, skipped the early morning run. Went out for 6 miles on a nice day at lunch on now dry roads. (Guide Yellow)
