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

5am...6 miles down to the water and along the Mount Vernon Trail with Stew. (Supernova)

Long day of meetings and trying to fight fires back home at work.  Tired and ready to get home.  Made some good networking connections, but my brain is fried after all the info this week.

8 miles running with the group run from Pacers Alexandria.  Group of about 30 people, ran in the front group of 6 and met some good people.  Ran the opposite way on the Mount Vernon trail on a 90 degree evening.  (Supernova)

Heading home tomorrow.
