Running Accomplishments:

My 10K PR is 32:40, set in 1988 at Fort Lewis, WA.

Short-Term Running Goals:

Short term goal is a sub 40 minute 10K, would also like to have a respectable time for a 1/2 marathon.

Long-Term Running Goals:

I hope to have the pleasure of racing with my kids as they get older.

Personal:

I was a fairly fast 10Ker approximately 20 years ago.  Although I have been running, at various levels, since that time, I haven't been focused solely on running (done a lot of biking, and triathlons....even powerlifting for a few years!).

 

I am married and have 2 kids, a boy (10) and a girl (8).  My wife is an avid cyclist and races in Idaho and Utah.

In SLC, ran from my hotel to the top of the mountain/hill above the University of Utah.  Had to walk/run the steepest parts.  Really enjoyed the trail running, it has been a long time since I enjoyed a run as much!  Total elevation gain 1850 ft over 2.2 miles.

Started out as a tempo run, ended up as intervals.  Got to be too fast at the peak and had to recovery, so I just did intervals all the way home, which felt good for a change.  Ave 7:25, not including the recovery periods in between.

Bucks and Back from home, light rain and cool.  Legs felt heavy from running Sunnyside on Sunday, but where much better by the time I got home.  Ran a little way with Elana.  

Ave 8:15 overall

Sunnyside 4mi up and back, into a pretty good headwind.  Felt hard but good.

 Wore a new pair of Ride 4's, they felt awesome.  Didn't realize how worn out my previous shoes were. Wow!

 

Rode the bike 8 miles afterwards (looking to hook up with Anna),  but we missed each other.
