Short-Term Running Goals:

I've gotten the running bug back and hope I can continue to enjoy it. I think for now, my short-term goal is to NOT burn myself out. I am pro at doing that. I have a half and full marathon that I am planning on racing in a few months. I hope to be trained well enough to PR in both, but if not...I will enjoy the ride.

Under 1:30 half

3:15 marathon

Julie and I got to help "beautify" the SLCC Campus this morning by planting lots of flower so I didn't get to run until 10:30 and by then it was too darn hot. Especially since I had been outside for 3 hours already. Soooo, I opted for the TM in the AC. Warmed up for 20 minutes, did 10 minutes of 1 min. on/1 off 6:58/10:00 pace. 25 more minutes of 6.7 and that's it!

My right inner ankle tendon is feeling "off". It makes me nervous because that is where I got injured before Boston and my big slump started. I'm thinking I need to slow down a bit and just run very comfortable.

Take care of that ankle.

Yes, I think I need to cross train more to keep healthy. Some people do well with lots of miles, but I think I am too injury prone if I don't strength train as well and back a little off on miles.
