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

Slept in til 8:15 and had a lazy morning camping.  Headed home then did some chores around the house then went out for a run with the family around the neighhborhood.  Nice easy day for father's day. (Altra Impulse)

4:30am...5 miles with Moxie.  Glute still really sore.  Full day at work, maybe my only run. (Ride 5)

No run at lunch (busy).  Antsy and bored at home (family gone or on electronics) so I washed 3 cars, forced my son to register his team for the race this weekend and went out for a 4 mile run (solo) in the evening heat. (Altra Impulse)

5am...slept through my alarm.  Got out to run and my left hip/groin was really twinging so I cut the run/walk short.  Got home and stretched, rolled, core workout.  Argh. (Mirage Gray)

Snuck in a quick 5 miles at lunch in 33:45 (6:45 avg) on a nice day.  Leg doing much better than this morning. (Fastwitch)

5am...5 miles with Moxie on a cool morning.  Then I was the driver/motivator for the kids at the To Bone and Back 40 mile relay race.  I ended up running/motivating 6 of the eight runners...3 miles with Justin on leg 3, 2.5 miles with Isabelle on leg 4, 2.5 miles with Braeden on Leg 5, 2 miles with Ben on leg 6, 2 miles with Jace on Leg 7 and all 5 miles with Katelyn on leg 8.  They ran 40 miles in 4:39 (7:00 avg) over a very challenging course.  Ended up with 20 miles on the day afterall (could have just run the 2 person with Gray afterall!). (Ride 5)
