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

4:45am...5 easy miles solo, did not want a wet dog from the water on the path. (Guide 8)

Tried to go out at lunch but it was raining and I did not have the right gear.  Then did not feel great after work (plus rain) and when I felt better and rain stopped Katelyn needed help with school work (making crepes for a speech).  So, no second run.

Skipped the morning run to help get my daughter off on her band trip (and it was cool outside) so I went to work early to have time for a longer run at lunch.  10 miles on the greenbelt in beautiful weather, the path was crowded. (Ride Orange)
