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

4:15am...6 slow miles with Moxie along Sunnyside and on Katelyn's loop in the neighborhood.  Not feeling great this morning, almost did not make it out the door on this warm and humid morning (storms are rolling in!).  Somehow got 6 miles after thinking 3 was going to be a challenge...mostly beat the rain this morning.  (Ride 3)

4.25 mile easy stress reliever run at lunch on a cool and rainy day.  (Mirage Red)

2 miles with Katelyn in the evening around the neighborhood.  (Bikila)

I went out for 3 miles with Moxie before waking up the kids to go run at Freeman Park.  We all ran a loop together then Justin and I ran a tempo run on the XC course.  He had some calf issues so we cut the workout a bit short.  I went out to find Katelyn on the path and ran for a while before finding her back at the truck.

9 miles total for the morning. (Fastwitch Red)

I got to sleep in today and went out around 6:30.  I ran 3 miles with Moxie then dropped her off so I could meet up with Craig for a nice long loop around the river through Freeman Park and back.  I ran 12 miles with Craig (great company, beautiful morning!) then finished off 13 miles in 1:35.  After refueling, I took Katelyn back out for 3 miles through the neighborhood.  19 miles for the morning...I am hungry are ready for a nap already.  (Mirage Red)

9 mile bike ride with my family around neighborhood...Katelyn was pushing the speed.
