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')

Ran up Provo Canyon.  Had an ok pace going up, was kinda cold.  Pushed a little on the way down.  Down hill sure hits the knees hard.  But was nice to have a faster pace though.

I'm looking forward to running on T-day for the Turkey 4 miler, then seeing everyone on Sat.

Nice run speedy! You are fast!

Hey Marion, Good to hear from you! Seems like you haven't been around. But then again I've seen your posts. I better comment more on your blog so I can keep track of my Payson friend.

Good job running today Jon!

Where are you moving to?

We were talking about the tutu run today, but that is also the day I am planning on joining a Buffalo Run training run on Antelope Island.

I am doing a fun 5K next Saturday. My sister will be walking with me. We are doing a Santa Run up in Ogden.

Maurine, I'm moving back to my house. My ex-remarried and moved to a new house so I'm back in to the house I help build. YEAH!!!!!

Your Santa Run sounds fun. If I remember, your sister is just starting out with running/races.??

Great run!!! And thanks for the dinner suggestion, it was good (and almost empty--good to go to a restaurant in Provo during a BYU game!) Scott got the chicken and steak marsala and I got whatever was right below it on the menu (polo something or other---the waiter recommended it). Then we shared and they were both VERY good!!! Oh, and he got calamari---yuck!!!!

From jona on Sun, Nov 23, 2008 at 16:24:49

Sorry about that Calamari Kelli.

I have only had it once, and YUCK! But, others seemed to like it, so I just figured that I'm just not a tentacle fishy eater.

I think you guys had my two favorites. Polo Rosa Maria and Marsala Chicken. Yum yum yum.

It looked like little miniature octopus! I told him he was eating the little pink octopus from Finding Nemo!

Anyway, thanks for the suggestion! It was nice to go somewhere different for a change! i think we will head to Prove more often, there are a few places we need to try.

That's some wicked speed Jon!!

Nice run!

From jona on Sun, Nov 23, 2008 at 21:23:15

Kelli, that is all I could think about with the little octopus tentacles. NOT for ME!

Thanks Teena, doubt its anything to special compared to a healthy speedster like you. :-)
