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')

Nice rest day, late this evening I rode my bike over to see the kids, 2 miles one way, 4 miles round trip, 16.5 minutes round trip time.

Thighs are a little sore.  Right achilles is aching.  I felt my arch and achilles durring the race yesterday, I think I have been pushing the life span on those shoes.  I think I will replace them.  There is probably more than 500 miles on them.

That is resting??

Yeah, easy. Did you see the men's marathon winners the other day, I think they went faster than I was going on the bike. Yikes.

From Kelli on Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 22:58:12

I did watch the marathon---the entire thing!! My husband would not fast forward for fear that he would miss Ryan Hall making his move. Too bad that never happened.

The haul fanny (I think I am not supposed to say butt on here). I know they go faster than I bike. It is seriously scary to me that they can run that fast for that long.

Hey, did you save the lovely e-mail I sent you last week (the running dude with the issue??) I deleted it (I delete everything, kind of a neat freak). Anyway, Walter would like it resent to him so he can show everyone!

Kelli, I sent that picture to you.

By the way, I had you down placing like 67th in the woman category. You should go get your medal! You deserve it.

From Kelli on Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 23:10:20

What, I get a medal???

They gave the first 100 women a necklace as we crossed the finish line---so I think I got it already.

Now, I tried to go through and count and I thought I was more like in the 40's somewhere. Way to make my day!!!!

Thanks for the picture (can I just say GROSS one more time??) I sent it to Walter.

Kelli, I know they were giving the first 100 men/women something I thought it was a medal, but maybe it was a necklace for women. I know when my chicked self came through they were giving medals to women, but the men had already been given. It was probably a necklace. You could email runners corner and ask.

I checked, you were the 67th woman. You rock!

From Kelli on Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 23:20:05

I guess 67 is better than 167. I would prefer 1st, but I'll take what I can get.

Okay, I have the paper write here. The first 100 women got an elite 100 necklace as they crossed the finish line. So I have it. I should start wearing it every day. Oh, and they called me ELITE. Can I change my status officially??? I am an ELITE runner, or at least I was for a day.

From jona on Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 23:35:10

Yes, I think you should change your status to ELITE!

From Kelli on Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 23:41:05

I think some might scoff.

From scooby on Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 12:58:49

ELITE!?! You bet.....take it and run with it girl!!! And YES, 67 IS better than 167. You are a STUDETTE!! I looked at my time and I would've gotten 89th out of the men, so, that medal sure would've looked good up in my cubicle here!! (and you can bet I would've changed my status to Elite....at least for a day!) Oh well, maybe next year!! Maybe I can get a medal at the St. George.
