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

Met Julie at her house at 7:00 and drove out to Copperton. Ran down to Old Bingham Hwy, to 4800 W, to 9800 S, to 4000 W, to 11800 S, back through her neighbor hood. There is about 1000 ft. loss in elevation, but a lot of it is in the first. The middle has some flat and pretty decent uphill. Felt good and overall pace was 8:26 (which included a SLOW .35 at the end to cool down and a MAJOR headwind coming from the SE the entire time).

Got home and went hiking up to Donut Falls with the fam. Planned very poorly and didn't take food (duh for a mother of 5) because it is only 1 1/2 miles round trip, but we decided to go up further to some old mines. I think we did a total of about 4-5. I am spent and sunburned! Oh, and got a stupid parking ticket!!!
