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

My hips are sore.  Spent the day walking around the Eastern Idaho State Fair...that didn't help much.

Went to Community Park with Justin to help him with some repeats. Easy wu, recovery and cooldowns with following hard efforts:  0.7Mx2 (6:35ish pace), 0.25Mx2 (6:03/6:09 pace), 0.2M (5:45 pace).  He put in a strong effort today.  Hips are doing ok, but not much more than this right now. (Boost)

8 mile bike ride with my family after the rain had stopped in the late afternoon.

Skipped my morning run as my hips were a bit tight.  Just letting this get better, maybe run at lunch.

5 easy miles in 36:57 at lunch.  Legs a bit stiff and hips are ok.  Just getting some sunshine.  (Cortana)

5 miles with around 6am nice and easy. I ran into Curt and we ran and chatted for about 2 miles.  After getting the kids off to school, Kami and I ran 5 miles into SRL and back.  She did great and her foot is feeling better.  Hope she can continue to "hate it less" and run more together.  (Mirage)
