2014 TENTATIVE RACING SCHEDULE:
TBD Short-Term Running Goals: Run 6-days a week and maintain a decent base level of fitness. Upwards of 50-60 per week would be great. Adjust to my new work position, use time wisely, and keep negative stress at bay. Hopefully make a good run at Ogden this spring.
Balance family, work, running, and the other important things in my life. Long-Term Running Goals: Enjoy running and continue doing it consistently. Stay healthy and avoid injury as much as possible. Have fun!
Continue chasing PRs while I still can, particularly in the marathon and half marathon. Explore new races, improve training, build friendships, and learn from the wisdom and experience of the numerous great runners here in Utah. Run well into my old age.
Personal: I live in Sandy, UT with my wife (Lindsay) and 2 kids. I love running the roads through my neighborhood and near Little Cottonwood Canyon. I also do a fair amount of treadmill running at the Life Centre Athletic Club. Aside from running, I love road and moutain cycling.

| A.M. - 15-mile course. Little Cottonwood Rd/Wasatch Blvd triangle, Sego Lily. This was the longest run I've done in close to 2 months and I'd be lying if I said it didn't feel like it. Felt pretty good though. Averaged just under 7 min pace. Felt fine afterwards and today (Sunday) when I'm writing this. As eluded in yesterday's entry, I'm certainly not ready for the Canyonlands 1/2 on the 16th. It'll be a good butt-whooping and will be fun to be running it with a few of my close friends though. |
