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

Nasty outside, slept in. Busy day, maybe a run after work.

Went to sit on a chair at work today and it rolled out from under me and I landed on my butt, hard.  Sore, no run.

Came home from work yesterday feeling like crap, nearly puking and passing out.  Stayed home today in bed.  Feeling better by late in the day.

5 easy miles with Moxie (first run with her in a couple of weeks to let her paw rest).  Glute better, feeling better.  (Ride Orange)

Drove to Boise and spent the evening with Erik, walked the dog, had pizza and watch Strange Things.

8am...11 miles on from Erik's house along the Boise greenbelt.  Ran into the "FitOne" half marathon and ran a few miles with the runners then past the finish line.  Could have tried to run this one if I had known...maybe not. (Ride Orange)

Drove to Eagle Island State park for the Bob Firman race to watch Katelyn and the IF teams run.  

Drove home to IF.  Tired.
