Short-Term Running Goals:

Stay healthy!

Would like to BQ - need to shave 23 minutes off PR.

 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running.

When I started running my wish that turned into a goal was to qualify for Boston. Just so I could say "I qualified for Boston."

AFTER BQ, I think I will do some Tri events.  For sure some Half Ironman events, and see where that takes me.

Personal:

Married to Kelly (with a 'Y')

Glad to see you blog some miles again. We sure miss you and Kelly down at Painter's on Sat. Have a GREAT week!

From Jon A on Tue, Jan 26, 2010 at 00:04:43 from 66.182.65.44

Smooth, We missed being there. I've been putting miles in, just not writting them into the blog. That's going to start changing, starting in two weeks I'll start back running/ maybe training. Kelly and I are going to run some races, maybe even a marathon. It would be great if we could get a lehi group like the BBK's.

I had some minor surgery today and am not permited to run right now, dr and Kelly said two weeks but we'll see.

Anyway, good job on your race. :-)

From Smooth on Tue, Jan 26, 2010 at 00:12:18 from 174.23.232.65

Hope you're healing fast and well from the surgery. Better listen to the doc and Kelly knows best!

It will be cool to have a LBK group here. Which marathon are you and Kelly thinking about?

From Kelli on Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 14:21:19 from 71.219.89.82

Somehow I missed this entry! GOOD JOB Jon and Kelly!!!!

From Jon A on Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 14:23:19 from 67.214.249.195

You didn't miss much. :-)

Your running is coming along good!

From Kelli on Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 14:24:11 from 71.219.89.82

Yeah, I am sick of running. What to do?????

From Jon A on Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 14:28:40 from 67.214.249.195

You sure run a lot for someone that is "sick" of it.

From Kelli on Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 14:41:24 from 71.219.89.82

more miles=more ice cream

From Jon A on Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 14:43:28 from 67.214.249.195

Yeah, I subscribe to that theory too!

From Smooth on Sun, Jan 31, 2010 at 23:36:21 from 174.23.232.65

How ya doing? Are you recovering well from the minor surgery?

From Jon A on Mon, Feb 01, 2010 at 12:45:29 from 67.214.249.195

Hey Smooth,

Recovery is coming along slowly. I hope to get out running next Monday/Tues. I have my follow up appointment with the DR on Tues so I may have to wait, but if I can talk "Dr Kelly" into it I will get out as soon as I can. :-)

From Smooth on Mon, Feb 01, 2010 at 12:53:27 from 174.23.232.65

I know it's harder to ask for permission than forgiveness...but, in this case, Dr. Kelly knows best. Better listen to her...you won't be sorry! :)

Speedy recovery to you and have a GREAT week!

From Kelli on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 18:38:37 from 71.219.89.82

HI JON!

From Jon A on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 18:44:12 from 67.214.249.195

Hey Kelli, In a couple weeks I am going to be up to 8+ miles on Sat, maybe I can talk you and Scott and Smooth (and anyone else) to running JRP.

I got the ok from the Dr to test the running waters, so Kelly and I are getting going, wont take long. :-)

From Kelli on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 18:45:44 from 71.219.89.82

Scott has not run for 4 weeks now and he is going to take one more week off, so that will probably be PERFECT for us. I have run on my own a lot lately and it STINKS!!! We would love to come down and I am sure Smooth and Teena would come.

From Jon A on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 18:48:12 from 67.214.249.195

Why has Scott taken time off?

I'm going out tonight, hope to go 5 miles, would like to go without a walk break, we'll see.

From Smooth on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 18:48:19 from 174.23.239.148

Count me in! So much funner to have company on long runs.

SO HAPPY to hear you got the ok from the Dr.

From Kelli on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 18:52:36 from 71.219.89.82

Scott tore his calf muscle in November, took 3 weeks off, came back way too hard and fast, re-injured it, took 2 weeks off, re-injured it again. So, he was supposed to run today (4 weeks of no running) but last Thursday he once again hurt his SI joint lifting weights (did the same thing two days before the Utah Valley Marathon last year), so he is out another week. The guy is NUTS.

From Jon A on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 18:54:24 from 67.214.249.195

He is crazy! That had to hurt! OUCH. He will be back to 50 mile weeks in no time.

From Jon A on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 18:56:08 from 67.214.249.195

Smooth, I'll keep you posted. Kelly and I will start running tonight, we will run in the eve's and some mornings. Hope to see you out and about.

From Smooth on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 19:01:43 from 174.23.239.148

Good deal! Enjoy your run tonight!

Kelli, I had NO idea Scott got injured so many times. STINKS! Will he be ready for Boston?

From Kelli on Tue, Feb 09, 2010 at 19:01:49 from 71.219.89.82

He is really worried about Boston, but he is a die hard and will be back to kicking my trash in a few weeks. However, I am going to force him to keep the miles low and the pace slow for the rest of this month at least!

Good luck tonight!!!
