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

Slept in and went for a run after church when the sun was up and temp pretty nice too.  5 miles with Moxie in the new Altra Impulse shoes I won last fall from Gnarly Bear.  Once I got used to the ride, I liked the shoes,,,need a few more runs to make a final call. (Altra Impulse)

I slept in and went to the gym with Kami after dropping off the kids at school. Lifte legs heavy (squats, dead lifts, bridges, box step ups and box jumps).

In the early afternoon went out for a run in glorious weather...in shorts!  11 miles around the river in 1:20 for an nice run.  Love the Impulse shoes!  (Altra Impulse)

We got the Camaro out for the the first time this year! Man, I missed driving it...fun!

Slept in a bit and did some errands before heading out for a run around 9:45.  7 miles into SRL and back for 7 miles, then grabbed Katelyn and we ran 3 miles in the neighborhood.  It was starting to sprinkle a bit and the wind was kicking up when we finished.  (Impulse)
