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

Felt much better this morning. Ran out 9800 to 3200 and back definitely way faster on the way back. Low 8's and high 7's are feeling comfortable on gradual downhill...good sign! AP 8:41

BTW, new shoes for Mother's Day. Exact same as others because I love em!

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.

Left a little later this morning and ran to my boys soccer game in Herriman. 3600 W to 11800 S, headed west to Mtn. View Corridor and up 12600 S. Felt AWESOME!!! A day off makes such a difference for me. Forced myself to keep a slower pace. The inner ankle is buggy so I am going to start with some KT tape and see if that helps...did before. AP 8:58
