Short-Term Running Goals:

This year I am looking to race a bit more and hope to improve. I have started to train a bit differently using a more well rounded program. Including tempo and speed work (which up to this point I have slacked off on) Would like to be somewhere near the top of my A.G. it makes racing more fun.Also helping motivate people to become more active and enjoy getting out and enjoying all life has to offer.

 

 


 

Long-Term Running Goals:

have not really set long term goals just love the great benefits physically as well as mentally that have come with running and look to continue to grow and improve

 

Personal:

Married to an amazing woman who I get to enjoy living and loving life for all its worth. From our urban farm to exploring the backcountry. I have 2 boys who are about grown. My passion for running has not diminished over the years just evolved into an integral part of life like it always has been but a little different. Lucky for me Tiff puts up with my running obsession and doesn't complain too much.

LEG # 1 7.9 mi : Not much sleep last night not really nervous just pre race like always up and packed in the van and picking up the rest of the team and into logan /icon building relaxed for the most part through the safety training and getting ready to go calm and relaxed 9:15 go time started out relaxed and loose quickly fell into my "new" stride ive found in the last week or so breathing well long slow smooth keeping relaxed not pushing staying within myself and my pace into machine mode my mind wandering everywhere focused on my mantra "smooth and fun enjoy the run"must have worked well the rest of the run unfolded in front of me rolling hills and great mountain air getting to the first exchange no team mate WTF looking around they were nowhere to be found calling them they were still on their way finished first leg in 50 min holy cow and did not feel like i pushed exceptionally hard waited 15 min for them to get there 

leg # 13 8.5 mi :Van 2 was running behind so i got to wait around at the exchange a little longer but understandably Dov was really getting worked not been as strong since recent treatments and incidents in the last few weeks alas thats why we are here raising funds and awareness :) and running which is a definite bonus. so setting off uphill out of snow basin getting the blood pumping right off still feeling good not much drain from this morning chopping up the hill into easy to stride pieces not as fast as this morning but nice and relaxed up to the top and start the down hill striding and stretching it out at sunset feeling exhilarated mind just goes blank to its happy place and before i know its done 55 min   although i really could feel the downhill in my legs now was glad the longer ones were finished

wow, that first run of yours was a 6:20 pace. That's smokin! What's with the "new stride"?

Your next leg was 6:28, again, smokin fast. You're much faster than you were during the Winter Series. I guess there is something to this training stuff?

Congratulations, sounds like you ran really well. Now I'm going to read your Saturday entry.
