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')

Well its not much, but got out.  Hopping that by next week I can be back on track with running. If I can hit 25 this week I'll be happy.

Don't have my stats, I remember the middle mile was something like 6:57, and I think the average for the run was 7:25.

 

Have a happy day!

Had to have another quick/short run in.  I needed to drop my daughter off to Kelly, Kelly took her to her horse back riding class, so I ran from there.  I ran into Smooth, she is such an awesome runner.  I was hoping for more time to run but was running late so I called it good with 4+.  I think I had mile 3 and 4 right close to 7:10, and 7:30.  Average for whole run was like 7:36.

Kelly and I are going to try and get out again tonight and get some more training of some sort in.

 

Have a great day!  Smile for someone, it will make them feel better.

It always amazes me that you can be running down a road and be alone for a few minutes, no car, no people, just me and my music and my "I'm about to die breathing."  Then, on the narrow road, the first car you see in a few minutes is coming toward you and they are riding the middle line, then you realize, wait I hear another car, one from behind.  They pass at the SAME time.  Now there are two cars and little ole me at the same place on the road at the same time.  Hummm, off the side I go, hoping to avoid a mirror in the back.  Why, why can't they come at different times?  I think this happened to me three times today.  Just a curious thing.

Ran into a friend and his wife out for their morning run.  We were headed opposite ways, I haven't seen them for a little while so I turned an ran with them for a bit and then turned around and continued my route.

I haven't downloaded my data from the watch so I don't know how the splits look.  They were YUCK I can tell you that.  There was an uphill mile that was right at 9 min.  URGH!!!!  Then my legs felt like a ton of bricks the rest of the way home.  I think I finished with right at a 8 min AP.  What a slacker.  :-)

 

Hope you have a great day!  Keep smiling!

Went over to the JRP and ran North First, then South.  Kelly rode her bike and met me there.  She would ride to the end of the trail, then turn around and go to the other end.  Pretty casual day for her.  She logged 40 miles.

I felt mentally better.  There was a spot here and there that I was struggling with the mental game of keep going, but that was around mile 8/9.  I need to increase my overall pace for these long runs.

Time: 2:06:53
Avg Pace: 8:27 min/mi

 

Have a GREAT weekend!
