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 miles.  (Glide Green)

Heading to SLC today to move Justin out of his school apartment.  He is doing online classes for the remainder of the term and perhaps May term.  Waiting to see how Westminster credits us for the rent and return of funds for his cancelled trip to Germany in May (we already gave the school a good chuck of $).  His roommate is "staying" so it is going to be interesting to see how this goes with us taking Justin's stuff...most of the kitchen and household equipment...since we don't have a plan for the logistics after school yet (e.g. apartment) and other "complicating" factors (e.g. girlfriend).

5 miles, windy and cold, tired of this weather. (Guide Yellow)

Only run for the day, got slammed with telework activities and then family stuff (college course registration mostly).  I am tired and brain dead, not sure I really like trying to work from home.
