Short-Term Running Goals:

It's been a challenging year so far since Boston 2011.  When I got home from Boston my world changed when I found out I had some pretty severe food allergies. Since being tested I have been focused on building my health back up which has been a long slow process. What a difference it's made and I feel extremely blessed. For years I knew something was wrong and it's amazing to finally know that food can actually be a persons medicine to live a healthy life. 

Long-Term Running Goals:

"You have to wonder at times what you're doing out there. Over the years, I've given myself a thousand reasons to keep running, but it always comes back to where it started. It comes down to self-satisfaction and a sense of achievement."
- Steve Prefontaine

I'm hoping to start building more miles when I can and be injury free.  Maybe one of these days I'll be fast. Just for now I'm just very happy to be running.

Personal:

Happily married to Marlin Ordway. We've got 4 grown children between the two of us.  It's been fun watching them go through life - making mistakes and picking themselves back up.  I love seeming them happy and succeeding.

What a month it's been.  I've ran to few of miles to even count this month!  I spent around a week and a half in Ariz helping my dad after he'd had open heart surgery.  The miracles of modern medicine.  He's 82 yrs old and been an exerciser pretty much his whole life.  As far back as I remember anyway.  He's living proof that working out pays off.  He's got a ways to make a full recovery tho.  I had  to put off working out because while I was down there we had 12 hr days at the hospital and once he was home someone had to be right there whenever he got out a chair,walked, ect.... 

This last week I was in Sacramento to watch my neice graduate from college. It was so hectic with so much family around I didn't get to work out much.

Now that I'm back home I really want to get back on track. Ran today 10 miles on the TM. Afterwords did a few weights. Felt good to get a good workout in!

Ran today on the TM.  Ended up doing 10 miles with a half of mile talking to Marlin when he got there.  Pretty good run. Expected to be more tired than I was after yesterday. Been trying to do a few weights lately.  It's been kinda nice and I can tell I've been missing that part of training. Good day. : )

Just a normal day.  Had been having a hard time entering my miles because it's been so busy.  Will be glad when the new year gets here.
