Short-Term Running Goals:

-Qualify for the 2024 Olympic marathon trials

Long-Term Running Goals:

-Run a few fast marathons. Grandma's, St. George, and Boston are on my target list. An Olympic Trials qualifier would be amazing. 

-Break stroller records? 

-Stay fit for a very long time. I believe what goes into making a competitive runner at age 60 is much different than age 20, just like what goes into making a good marathoner differs from a good sprinter. I hope that by taking care of my body, I can be very fast for my age as I get older. 

 

Personal:

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I served a mission in Rome, Italy from 2015 to 2017. I eat a whole food, plant-based diet, which I believe helps my running. I like chocolate shakes on sunday nights and I will always call the Pacific northwest home.

Didnt end up going as quick as I had imagined because of how my Achilles felt, and the mud. But that's ok! I'm feeling pretty good.

9 miles, felt ok. A little tired and sore, which I like! Hoping to beat this Achilles problem

Provo river trail. Felt alright. Picked it up at the end because surprisingly I had actually gone out faster than I had been coming back.

Still felt a little sore, probably in part I think my hips have been compensating for my weak Achilles. On the bright side, today I started doing eccentric heel drops on the calve press. Since it was hurting to do even a few on the stairs, my physical therapist recommended starting with less weight and building up on the calf press. I did 70 pounds and it worked quite well!

Wait what... Do I need to recalculate? I didn't even feel that insanely good. I meant to run 12 miles but apparently ran 12.9 at 5:40 pace... Holy chipotle. This is exciting. Goal for next week is to get stronger, still no workouts yet. Don't want to hurt myself again. Woohoo! This is exciting! (5:54, 5:26 pace)
