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

Went to the gym with Kami mid afternoon and did two progression pickups. Started easy then increased up to 4:55 over the course of 3 miles.  Started at easy again and progressed up 0.1mph every 100m for the next two miles ending up at 4:55.  Last mile at MP then the last 0.25M at 4:17.  6 miles in 35:48.  (Tangent)

5 easy outside with Moxie this morning...slow and tired and a bit sore, this was probably more to get Moxie out than me. (Ride)

5 easy around the greenbelt at lunch.  A bit of a twing in my right foot but nothing to work about.(Mirage)
