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.

12 mid day miles Beautiful weather drawing me out to partake of the cool air and put some miles in. Not sure how many I was going to be able to get in calves still arguing after yesterday, surprisingly my quads are feeling great just rocks for muscles in the lower legs not that it was not expected so live with and work through it. Started with Joe on the golf course loop nice and slow 5 miles good and relaxing a couple hills stimulate circulation. Then back by the house Joe went in I continued on the 13rth west loop a few more hills that really let me know I was going ha ha my body kept wanting to go a little faster,had to force myself to keep slow and steady. Finished the second loop for 7 relatively rewarding miles. We will see what tomorrow has to offer :)

3.6 am miles Ran with Joe this morning on the 7th west loop great warm up for the day. was maybe hoping for a longer run but take what I can get in whenever I get the chance. Was supposed to go up north for some roof repairs ended up around town getting some other stuff accomplished. Then bowling tonight so no pm run will see what the rest of the week has in store

11.3 am miles Back to the winco walmart loop because I can ha ha thinking to myself I need to find some new routes. Going to start trying some out and backs on the Jordan Parkway trail I can venture either direction and not have so much traffic to deal with. Not that traffic really bothers me I tune it all out for the most part any way the only annoyance is traffic lights. The down side to the trail right now is the lack of bathroom facilities this time of year in case I have to make an emergency stop.

7.0 pm miles Had to rush to meet Tiff at the gym tonight even though I would prefer to run outside myself she is still resigned to the indoors and since she leaves tomorrow for Mexico while I am stuck here I conceded and ran with her there tonight. It was ok though not so much walking traffic so once again I set the auto pilot and let myself zone off to other places and things. And tonight I find myself wondering if I actually was more present and aware during my running from time to time and pushed a little harder would I get better gains in races and lose the great feeling I experience now when I run or what exactly would all come of it? I don't know guess I could try it a while and see my findings are and if I feel like I am not enjoying it as much I can always go back to where I am now :)

3.6 am miles Went with Joe this morning a little later than normal so we took the 7th west loop hashing out a few plans for the day as we went. running has a way of getting the creative juices flowing and jump start the day.

no pm run was on cat duty (feeding tiffs cats while she is gone) and a birthday party to go to so I ate burritos chocolate cake and ice cream instead I would call that a fair trade off

15.5 am miles Went out the door this morning and was greeted by some great big snow flakes. I felt so inspired I ran to Tiffs checked the fur balls then commenced to get into my groove,so much so that I completely ignored time,weather and almost everything else, Next thing I know I. am on 94th south and 13th east turning west. From there I took 7th east and back north to 60th south west there and back home to finish. It ended up being such a rewarding time I love it when a run goes like that

7.1 pm miles Left over enthusiasm from this morning drew me back onto the road tonight. Not nearly the distance of the morning run but still feeling good legs no where near as tired as I though they might be. Mind wandering watching the night sky with the clouds roiling and floating by things were going my way for sure today

7.5 am miles Did a new loop this morning going to 53rd and up to 9th east around ft union and back on state. This was a nice change of pace, still some traffic and signals to deal with but a good course. Was really enjoying the clear morning, not too cold and watching the sun come up was great. Feel like I am making some good improvements in overall fitness. I should start challenging myself more to get to where I want to be over the next few months but am slowly gaining some insight and putting a more structured plan together soon to be implemented :)

3.5 noonish miles Not much break from this morning but I was not busy and Joe was done working and wanted to go for a run so I was all for it. Figured I would get my second one in early even though it was only a shorter one. We will be running the course for the Riverton Half Marathon in the morning with the American Flyers Race Pacers,will be good to have an idea of what to expect when we pace that one although the Canyonlands Half in Moab is our next pacing opportunity .

13.1 am miles Ran with the race pacers in Riverton this morning previewing the half marathon course. It is a fairly technical (kinda rolling hills could be difficult) route. Somewhere around 35 people showed up there were quite a few top runners. It was good to meet them and talk a bit. Met Jake, Walter ,Fritz plus a few others. It turned out to be a really fun run. Made a few new friends form all over including Springville. Looks like we will prolly do another one up in the avenues in the near future as well as possibly going out to A.F. or somewhere down south.Took it very easy and stuck with Joe through the run since it was his first longer one of the year. All in all it was really a great time very enthusiastic group almost like a race but less intense.
