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.

8 miles on the I-80 frontage road. Had to wait till mid dat to finally get out and by then it was pretty warm. I decided to run shirtless for the first time I can think of ( really it may be a first for me in... Ever) any way didn't push too hard since I knew there was no place to stop for water or anything. Got a little color,I did use some sun tan lotion SPF 8 so I wouldn't fry too bad. I am looking to get rid of the farmer tan on my arms tho. Totals 8 @ 7:47 pace

2 laps 4 miles each on my loop from the warehouse. Welcome to summer. I went out at 1:00 since it was about the only chance I could see me getting and it was very warm. I made it through mostly on will power since I didn't take water or fuel. Still good to get it in

After having to be to Layton for a delivery at 3 am I came back to the warehouse and got a 10 mile shakeout before the steady stream of trucks started rolling through. Needed something to sustain me through what is turning out to be another super long day. I will survive though seeing as I will have the next 2 days off work and on the go. I am as prepared as I am going to be for Ragnar and we are in van 2 this year so se new scenery as well as different people in the van with us. Should be another great time.

First run of my Ragnar relay. It was supposed to be 7.2 very hard meaning no van support and some 1800 feet of elevation gain at altitude going up to snow basin. Getting to the exchange proved to be easier said then done. My handoff runner caught up to the van quite a ways before the actual exchange so I jumped out, ran her in and continued on from there. That was some tough mileage. The road just kept going up and up.

Second Ragnar run somewhere 3:30 or 4am 5.5 miles gaining some 400 feet I believe. I didn't click on this one but it wasn't horrible. Being that I hadn't slept since the night before and having run earlier I just locked in and went. I did get to see my sister Vesta. She was volunteering at the water stop for us so that was nice. 

Last run of the relay 10 miles starting with a 1/2 mile climb to about 10000 ft then some steep downhill with strategically placed uphill sections. I was sucking wind the first part then fell into my rhythm dialing in some good miles. Most of them were 6:30 - 6:50 range surprisingly since I didn't feel like I had that much left and didnt feel like I was pushing terribly hard. The uphill gave me a nice reality check tho lol then when you thought things couldn't get more interesting the last chunk of downhill was on trail.. If you can call it that. More like 4x4 ruts complete with loose gravel and softball sized stones while trying not to twist an ankle. All in all it was still a good time testing my mettle. I have more of an understanding of what I need to work on and the good times and camaradarie are so worth it.
