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 the ol' WordPerfect 5 mile Loop.  I think the is the first real run outside this season.  Was good to get out, pathetic that its the first!

Outside is noticeably different from the indoor track at the fitness center.  Had some uphills and some downs.  Will do this route a lot, and add 1/2/3 miles here and there.

37:07.  Splits (7:38, 7:11, 7:22, 7:21, 7:16) avg: 7:21

Great day to be outside!

Ran the same route as yesterday.  Was going to alter, but woke up late and decide this would be the easiest/quickest way.  Legs are tired post run.  Good sign I'm not out running enough.  Sooo, two days in a row, I'm shooting for 5 in a row.  Should be good and tired on Sun!  Yeah!

Don't have the details off my watch yet, but I do remember a 6:59 mile.  If I remember correctly the avg pace was 7:11.  

 

Have a great day!

Ran the dirt road that goes next to the Murdock canal.  The canal goes from N Orem up to like the point of the  mountain (I think).  Its possible to make a nice long run out of that.  I just wanted to see how the dirt was, if it was muddy or dry.  It was dry.  But as I look out the window, it is snowing.  So may not be a viable option for tomorrows run.

I haven't decided if I am going to go run the JRP or somewhere else.

Held a pretty ok pace today.  Ok run, probably should have gone and extra couple miles.

 

Ave pace 7:23 min/mi

Wanted to run with Kelly, but she was only going to run 5,6,7 miles depending how she felt, so I got up early and drove up to her area and ran 5 before Kelly and her crew started, then ran with them.  Kelly's knee is still bothering her, so she went about 3 miles when pain told her to stop.  I'm glad she called it quits.  That is a hard thing to do when your with others and your brain tells you that you can keep going.  Finished up with about 7.5 on the second half.

The first part of the second half we were running on some trails up against the mountains in Alpine.  That was fun.  They will be fun to run in the spring/fall when all the trees have leaves.  The last couple of those miles were streets heading back to Kelly's friend Wendy's home.  

All in all good day of running.
