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')

Met a few people up in Lehi and ran the Jordan River Parkway trail. Nice run. There were people I didn't know, so SORRY if I miss your name. But people I did know, or just met were Kelli and her husband Scott, and Tyler S and his wife Kellie, and Michelle L., Smooth and I'm pretty sure I saw Maurine, I think she got there late.

Michelle and Tyler and Scott took off for some speed work about mile 6. I was not able to keep up. Wish I was in better shape, then I could think about staying within shouting distance.

Was nice seeing everyone out there. Kelli - Next time I will have Swedish fish for you, my move has got me all turned around and I forgot to bring them.

Good run guys, thanks for dragging this old guy along.

PS - I just got back from my moms house, my sister made me a TuTu for this coming Saturday Nutcracker 5k.  Who is going to be there?

Jon,

That is an awesome pace for so many miles!! You did great (albeit you forgot Kelli's swedish fish).

Michelle, Tyler and Scott must have been cruising!!

Both Kelli(e)s and Smooth were there!! Stink!! I missed out big time.

Thanks Teena, those speedsters were going for a while. I think they wanted 6 min pace for 2 miles then rest then 5 something pace for 2 miles. They are fast.

Missed you being there Teena. You'll be back with us soon though!

From Kelli on Sat, Nov 29, 2008 at 15:40:36

Ah, I forgot the Swedish Fish!!! Now I am mad at you....kidding! I really enjoyed my pumpkin muffin, nummy!

Scott says you are fast! He says once you have the time to work on endurance you are going to be kicking his butt! Look at what you accomplish in the limited time you have to run. You are an amazing runner! AND your legs are like twice as long as Scott's, so you will waste him!

From jona on Sat, Nov 29, 2008 at 16:32:16

Kelli, Scott is way to kind. I do need to get out more often. This casual running is going to get me injured.

From Kelli on Sat, Nov 29, 2008 at 16:36:05

Casual runners do not run as fast as you do! If only we all had the time we needed to do everything we wanted!!

Scott is not kind, believe me. He means it if he says it.

From jona on Sat, Nov 29, 2008 at 16:47:14

Oh he is to kind.

When Michelle and Tyler and Scott took off I wanted to stay with them, but just didn' have it in me. Maybe someday.

I do want to log more weekday miles in in this next month. Will be good for me leading up to Painters.

From Kelli on Sat, Nov 29, 2008 at 16:49:00

I could give you a challenge----the Beat Kelli Challenge So She Will Never Chick Me Again. Just log more miles than me each week (should not be hard, I had a whoppin' 22 this week). We can RACE to the most miles.

Jon - I showed up late and most of you passed me after you came down the hills from the windmills. You were gone before I finished my 10. Can't wait to see you in a tutu (I would need a fourfour)

From jona on Tue, Dec 02, 2008 at 11:26:38

Maurine, I thought that was you when we passed.

Trust me, I'm in a FiveFive, and I am sure everyone will wish I never wore the thing. But it will be fun!

From Kelli on Tue, Dec 02, 2008 at 22:14:28

Alright, do I need to plan daily runs for you, too???

From jona on Wed, Dec 03, 2008 at 02:22:27

Funny Kelli!

I probably should get out and run more hu?

Ok, I'll get out and run tomorrow. What a slacker I am. :-)
