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.

Had a nice birthday workout today... We ran the Lake Loop run (not a loop around Utah lake obviously, but a run that goes to it and comes back again). Varsity ran 5 miles and the people going to the race on Friday just did three. I ran 15:24 for the three miles, with nice even splits of 5:07, 5:09, and 5:08. That's on pace for a 15:57 5K so I guess I PR'ed in practice! I felt great afterward and recovered quickly. Hopefully I'll recover for the race as well! IR/T10/IP/Yoga

Really crappy race today... Three mile warm up before the Color Country Invitational at Southen Utah University. My time for the 6K was 20:51 and I got 15th place overall and 6th out of the 7 guys on my team. Felt great for 8 minutes and then things just fell apart. We ran up this dirt hill three times that just killed me by the end. Ugh.

Decent long run today. I'm proud of myself for running it hard after my race yesterday. I didn't feel like I deserved a break. Unfortunately, no one seemed interested in going hard on the way out so we were about 50:30 at the halfway mark which is super slow. Just under 6:45 pace. I knew I couldn't PR with such a slow time on the way out like that but I wanted to at least get a solid run in so I went with a few guys who were going hard on the way back. I finished in 91:50, which is 41:20 on the way back, which is about 5:31 pace. My previous best was 42 flat, so given the race yesterday, I'm ok with that I guess.
