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.

Speed session got going fast today but I purposely went slower than others cuz we still have two workouts this week. 8 by 200 with about 2 min rest on each. One 30, one 27, the rest were 28 or 29.

8 mile tempo on west river road, thankfully ice wasn't really an issue. Went out in 5:20s pace and it felt like long run pace which was a great sign. I told myself it was because the wind was at our back which it was. On the way back it was pretty bad but not the worst I've ever dealt with. I also ran right behind someone most of the time which helped. It felt comfortable the entire way so the last mile I broke the wind a bit. Ended up averaging 5:18 pace, so not extremely good even accounting for wind, but overall I felt really good about today because I was so comfortable.

AM: 4 treadmill miles

PM: 10 miles. Maybe due to it being my first double in a while or the workout yesterday or cold weather or sore foot tendons, I felt a little tired.

4 by 1, 4 by 45, 4 by 30 seconds up a hill. Running up a hill fast can be hard! Overall an easier workout cuz of length though. Thankfully my foot was ok. I need to do more heel walks though to prevent this. Felt a little hypoglycemic on the run back.

Cool run. I took a 20 minute bus ride towards St. Paul, such that I only ran 1 mile to get to the Gateway State Trail. They said it was plowed during the winter but turned out to still be pretty ice at parts. I'm sure that won't be an issue from next week on, I just wanted to shake things up from east river road. Made a quick decision to run north at the junction with Bruce Vento trail, which ended up being my favorite part of the run (including because it was totally dry). Then I ran back, and exited the state trail on the road that would take me straight to my classic route on Wheelock. 6:19 pace overall, the first 6 miles at 6:25 pace (ice) so probably more like 6:25 for the first 10 total with the ice and 6:10 for the last 7.
