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

Nice MP run (knee pain less at faster pace and focus on form), following by a run pacing my wife.

6.2M early this morning, knee issue back a little bit more this morning.  Again it lessened as I pick up the pace and focused on form.

Nice lunch time run at MP.  Felt my knee a bit, but not bad at faster pace and it actually felt really good afterwards.  Looking good to be ready for Dam marathon.

Nice easy early moring 3.1M run, felt the knee a bit more than I wanted to. Iced it after the run and by midmorning it was feeling really good.

Nice run at lunch at MP (6:18 avg), knee felt great before the run, started to twing in the first mile, then felt better as the run went along.  Knee felt great afterwards as well.

Got up early to run, but my knee was pretty twingy and it kind of hurt when I tested it out before starting my run.  So, I decided it was best to rest it rather than push for mileage at this point in my prep for Teton Dam marathon.  Plan on a 6-8 miler tomorrow.
