| Member Since: Nov 19, 2007 Gender: Male Goal Type: Half Marathon Finish Running Accomplishments: Recently have become interested in running thanks to my daughter and her XC adventures. I have finished a 5K and 10K. As I am new to running, I don't have a lot of highlites at this point. Hopefully this will change
5K 27:21
10K 59:30 Short-Term Running Goals: First build back up to running thirty minutes at a time. 5K October 30 -- Big Brothers, Big Sisters.
10k in November -- Butch Cassidy race in Springdale.
I would like to build a solid base over the next 6 - 12 months. I hope to run in either 5K or 10K races through the next year and perhaps one 1/2 marathon (depending on how my body responds to training).
I would like to see how fast and far my 40 + year old body is capable of running. Long-Term Running Goals: Over the next 10 years I want to run consistently to maintain health and to enjoy a sport that challenges me. Personal: I have a wonderful marriage of 20+ years and have four children who are the light of my life. They range in age from 19 - 12 . . . two girls and two boys. Two of my children are interested in running. Sierra and Zac are both participating on the Pine View XC Team.

| | AM -- Ran at the Gym on the treadmill. Went with Jill and enjoyed a workout. We were not able to be there a long time. Finished three miles. I wanted to do a little on the stationary bike, but it was time to go. Maybe tomorrow. |

AM -- Ran on the tread mill. Didn't get as much distance as I would have liked, but I feel good with what I did accomplish. Also XT for 20 minutes on the stationary bike (6 + miles). Good work out. Total time was 40 minutes.

| | AM -- Ran my usual outside run. Up to Artic Circle and back. I really need to find a couple other options for the distance I am running. Enjoyed being outside and the feeling of exercising. My left ankle was stiff and sore and my right foot is sore from the PF. No complaints, though No complaints. |

| | AM -- went to Golds with Jill this morning. Spent the time on the tread mill for 3 miles. Felt good to finish. As always I am glad to be able to exercise. Can't believe I haven't made this a habit before now. |

PM -- Had committments early this morning that prevented the workout. I went to the Gym with my sweeheart for date night. Ran a 5k workout on the treadmill and then XT on the Stationary Bike for another 3.5 for a total workout time of about 40 minutes. Feels great to workout. |

| | AM -- went to the Gym with Jill this morning. Five mile warm up on the stationary bike and then did some strength training with Jill. Afterwards I went for my run up to Artic Circle and back. With out really trying I am finding that I am running faster in my workouts . . . still very much a slow run, but I guess my legs are getting stronger.
