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

3 easy recovery miles with Moxie.  A car turned around in the middle of the street to come back and ask me about Moxie and where I got my beautiful Border Collie...she is a great dog!  (Ride 3 2015)

Drove down to Preston area to camp at Emigration Camground with my family.

3 miles in the morning with Moxie on the Highline Trail right behind our camp!  It then proceeded to rain most of the day, so we spent the day in the camper playing games.  

When it cleared up later, we did another 3 miles around camp.  (Xodus)

5 miles with the family on the Highline Trail, then on the Midland Connector to the Midlad Trail up to the top of the ridge then up the peak of the mountain overlooking Paris, ID.  A good climb. Picked Huckleberries on the way back!

Another 3 miles with the kids and the dog on the trail before dinner.

2 miles around campground.  Spent the early afternoon on the beach at Bear Lake then came back and relaxed.  Finished reading "Racing the Sun"...a good read and neat to the see the character development of Quenton.

1 mile with Moxie at camp before heading home today.  Nice few days of camping with my family. 

6 in the evening, 3 with Kami then 3 with Justin.  Good to be home, but enjoyed the relaxation of camping.  (Launch 2)

6:15am...6 easy miles with Moxie along Sunnyside.  

Took the kids to Freeman Park and ran the Tiger/Grizz course.  Once with Katelyn and Justin, then just Justin and I for the second round (a bit faster).  Nice to run with my kids!  (Ride 3 2015)

4 miles with Katelyn after a short break through the neighborhood.  (Fastwitch 6)

3 miles in the neighborhood with Kami in the late evening.  Spent the day installing a new router, went well except one blueray player. Sick kid too.  (Vibram)
