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. |

| | A nice warm, windy day to hop the fence and do a workout on the track at Provo High school. The track team came part way through the workout but I was very grateful that they recognized that I'm just another runner like them and graciously let me finish, though I did run in lane 4 and still had to dodge a few people who got in the way.
Wow... It's apparent that this was my first track workout in a while. 8 by 400 (90 seconds rest) in 67, 65, 63, 62, 63, 64, 63, and 60.

| | Fun workout today! I don't know if it has been the extra sleep I've been getting (8 hours the past couple days), my healthy diet, or just being blessed, but I had lots of energy today. Two other things made it cool: they had a track meet at Provo HS today and at 1:30 this coach told me he was gonna kick me off at 2. He ended up leaving and I was able to finish my workout without having to cut it short, at about 2:15. Also, there was a guy doing this wierd workout there, it didn't include much in the way of running, but it was weird plyo stuff mostly. I talked to him afterward and he is some guy who went to Texas and was a 18-6 pole vaulter! Holy cow! He also high jumped 7-3, long jumped 25 feet, and triple jumped 57 feet. Impressive!
Workout was 3 sets of 5 300s. 72 seconds rest between each rep and 3 min rest between sets. 46.2 average.
(50, 47, 46, 46, 47) (47, 47, 47, 46, 46) and (46, 46, 44, 46, 43).
