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

Cool and windy day at lunch. Ran in Freeman Park on the XC cross country course, easy (3.15M in 22:16) just to check the course on (they made a few changes).  With wu/cd, 5.25 miles. (Fastwitch)

4am...5 easy miles with Moxie on a nice morning. Beat the rain storm. Had to get to work really early for meetings. (Ride 5)

Way to busy at work today for a run. I went out after work for a quick 3 miles before going to see "Woodlawn" with the Men's group.  Great movie. (Altra Impulse)

4:45am...6 miles with Moxie on a cool morning.  Ran into Curt, Alana and Gama and ran with Curt for a few miles, good to catch up. (Ride 5)

6 miles on a nice day at lunch (I actaully overdressed, thought it was cooler).  Warmup mile then the XC course in the park.  Ran it a better today, 3.15M in 19:10 (6:05 AP).  Ran DanS in the last 800m of his running the course then we cooled down together.  (Fastwitch)

Celebratory beers with Dan after work.

I slept in and went for a run after dropping off the kids as school and a devotional time.  10 miles in 1:16 from home through SRL and back. Nice day, nice and easy run.  20 miler tomorrow. (Altra Impulse)

Kids XC in Pocatello today.

5am...out for a long run early.  Met Andrea for a few miles then she peeled off and then met up with Rex and Craig.  Rex was running well and took off.  Craig and I just cruised along.  Way slower and more painful than I wanted this one to be...not looking good for COT marathon based on this run.  I wanted 20 miles, but could only muster 18.25 miles.  Very sore right after this crappy run (8:30 AP, no progression).  (Ride 5)
