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 with Kelly and her running friends.  We went up to Lambert Park, and got some trails in.  

I learned something about my watch.  I can't leave it attached to the charger while not plugged into the electric outlet.  It drained the battery - DEAD.  So, no data for me.  Another GPS indicated we went 8.7 miles.  I'm sure the time was slow, but enjoyed the company and the scenery!

The rest of the day was nice.  Rested by a pool and got a little to much sun on the legs.

Have a great day!

Well, the wait is over. Phew!  She said yes!!!  I really have her fooled!

I took her for a walk around the temple grounds at the Timpanogos Temple and had some roses hidden in my "temple bag", then I gave her a gift of a necklace and then surprised her further by pulling the roses out of the bag and while she was looking at the roses I knelt on one knee and waited for her to look at me and ask her to marry me.  She said YES!  I then could breathe!  :-) 

Happy happy day!

No date planned right now, we have some paperwork to get done so we can have our special day in the Temple.  The bishops have told us it could be 3 weeks to 3 months to get it all done.  We will push for the 3 weeks!!!!

I'm excited!!!

Got up late, intended on getting more miles, but cut them short.  

I think I am going to run shorter again tomorrow.  Still having some tenderness (even after most of the week off) in my achilles, and my ITB on the left leg.  So, easy it goes.

Went over to the JRP.  Saw Smooth at the start.  I decided to go 10 miles and not push the speed.  Ran the 10 and stopped.  My achilles was sore, but it didn't get worse.  I don't know how its related, but it sure seems like the ITB is the problem.  When the ITB starts to hurt the achilles starts to hurt.  Think I'll stretch more.  Pain is dull, doesn't seem to get worse.

 

Got the bike out and rode up Suncrest.  My bike muscles need work!!!!!
