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')

Some days I just don't want to get out of bed. This was one. Then the head wind heading UP the canyon seemed to push me backwards. Ughh! Overall, the run was good though. Darn head wind. :-)

Nice run Jon - 10 miles as fast as the race Monday, NICE! I'm definitely not back to that yet, even without a headwind!

Dude! You ran a 10 miler @ 7:39 pace and are complaining...Whoa Nelly! I would love to be able to do that!!!

Jeff - Teena did chick me at Hobble, and now Rachel is in the "chicked Jon" column. I have to figure out how to keep others off that. Hummm. Retire?
