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

No run today.  Hammy was tight in the morning and the day was too full.

My father in-law had a heart attack this morning.  Thanks to God that he at our house, since we are traveling he was in Idaho Falls instead of their small town and he received quick and effective medical care and is doing well.  Praise God for his timing in this situation.

No run today.  Slept in because I was tired and took the day off from work (mostly) to help deal with my father in-law...getting him home from the hospital, getting meds, etc.

I was going to go out this afternoon on a very nice day but instead ended up going to the community care to diagnosis my own issue...Shingles!  When it rains it pours.

Hope to get a long run in tomorrow.

6am...17 miles in 2:12 on a cool morning.  Started off with Curt and Lynette for 8 miles, then ran about 4 with Corwin then 3 with Marlin.  I also saw Gray, Mauri and Bruce Peterson during the run.   A really good tiime with friends.  My left hammy was tight the entire the run and energy was low but it was good to get out.  (Mirage)
