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

5:30am...got up and my glute/hammy were on fire. Stretched and rolled then felt better and decided to take Moxie out short on the warmish morning. 4 miles, last 2 miles with Curt and Patrick. Felt better after the run. (Xodus)

Slower 6.25 mile run at lunch on the slick path around the river. Went out a little early to beat the storm...wind and snow was just starting when I came back out of the locker room! (Launch 2)

5am...went out for a run after stretching and rolling my achy glute/hammy. 4.2 miles with Moxie on a cold and windy morning. Slow since the pathway was slick and icy. (Ride 5)

5 miles (plenty considering the conditions) at lunch around the river. I was either ice skating or snow shoeing the whole way. Quite a leg and ab workout even though I was going slow. (Launch 2)

4:45am...warmish morning with no wind. Pathway was a mix of a light ice or completely dry for the first 3 miles, then the snow started and it made it a tough run back as now I could not see the icy patches. Skated a few times (Moxie dragged me!) but made it home with no mishaps. Between the snow, ice and cold weather coming, it looks like TM time for the rest of the year (mostly!) on the new equipment at the gym! (Xodus)

No second run, too cold, windy at lunch then I got busy with chores and helping our Pastor pack up his stuff to head back to Iowa this week. We are going to miss Pastor Tom!

First day of an 11 day holidy break off from work! Slept in and I was going to go out with a couple of running buddies, but Curt was injured and Craig was snowed in. So I took Moxie out for 5 miles along Sunnyside then came home and grabbed Justin to go back out. As we headed out the door, the snow started...and it kept getting heavier throughout the run til is was a white out for the last mile! Cold and ice covered by the time we got home! Another 6 miles with Justin to get 11 miles for the day. Then I shoveled the driveway,.,now I am tired. (Xodus)

Merry Christmas to all the FRBers!

Slept in after a long day yesterday with family. My family went to the gym, Katelyn and I ran, Kami and Justin did weights.

10 miles in 1:04 (6:26 AP). Some easy, some fast on the new treadmills. They have courses with videos in differnet places with you can watch and the incline adjusts, pretty cool. I did a California Trail run and a run in Germany. Got the machine up to 11, 12, 13, and 14 mph. Have not run that hard in a while. Hammy and glute felt ok. (Fastwitch)
