Short-Term Running Goals:

Keep on running, enjoy it for the sake of running, relax and enjoy life...de-stress.  Stay fit as I enter retirement in < 4years.

No racing, retired.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running until this old body says no, running for fun.

Personal:

 I started running competitively in 2005 and ran my first marathon in 2005. Now retired from competitive racing.

Bend down, O Lord, and hear my prayer;

answer me, for I need your help.
Protect me, for I am devoted to you.
Save me, for I serve you and trust you.
You are my God.
Be merciful to me, O Lord,
for I am calling on you constantly.
Give me happiness, O Lord,
for I give myself to you.
O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive,
so full of unfailing love for all who ask for your help.
Listen closely to my prayer, O Lord;
hear my urgent cry.
I will call to you whenever I’m in trouble,
and you will answer me.  - Psalm 86:1-7

4:30am...5 snowy miles with Moxie along Sunnyside.  Snow today, very cold tomorrow and Friday. I am tired of winter. (Guide 7)

Frigid cold today (and supposed to get colder the next two days).  Weights, stretching, rolling at home.

5:30am...woke up at 3:30 and could not get back to sleep.  Had some coffee and finally decided to just go to the gym to run (-16 degrees outside). 8 miles in 51:20 (6:25 avg)...I was the only one in the gym when I started and only about 10 people when I left. (Fastwitch)

Went to a men's group with Justin this morning (good that he was willing to come).  Good start, not a good finish with a pretty wacked End times prophecy guy talking about his predictions.  Yet another strike for this congregation for Justin.  

 3 more miles then weights with Justin and Katelyn,
