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.

(3, 4.5, 3)- Great workout at NMHS. 4 by 1600 with two minutes rest (except after number two when I ran to the bathroom and got three minutes, but my opinion is that if anything that made me get out of my rhythm and go slower)- 5:03, 5:05, 5:08, 5:04. 

PM- 5 miles.

Great run on Roxyann. 4 strides. Feeling very blessed To be so aerobically fit right now to get up that hill quite fast (29:15) and not feel challenged at all.

Had an awesome workout today. That makes two workouts this week where I went faster than my goal pace (and an easy run to boot). 5 mile tempo run at 5:16 pace. Also I think my body is getting smarter and more intuitive on pace than it was before, because once again I ran very even splits. Miles 1-2 were 10:31 and miles 4-5 were 10:34.

I wanted to meet up with my high school coach so did most of my mileage and then warmed up with them for their work out. I don't think it would be wise to do it again. Afterwards I felt pretty sore and achy. I think it's best to just do my run, do my exercises, and then take a cold shower. But other than that it was alright.

I ran out of time and had to run only 1:45, which I estimated to be 14.5 miles on Mount Ashland. Boy was it hard. I've never taken altitude very seriously but I think it got to me today as I peaked around 7000 feet. And the last time I did this, I had yet to learn the philosophy that a long run shouldn't be at recovery pace so I guess with me pushing more it was bound to be a bit harder.
