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

Got up early to run with Jared before work and was hoping to do 4 with him and an additional 5-6 when I got to work. About 1 in I go a horrible pain in my lower abdomin. Toughed out another .25 and couldn't stand it. I walked the rest of the way home. I thought it would feel better later, but no. Soooo, that was it for running. BTW, bladder infection:(

Officer Down at work again. Holy moly...20:17 was my time...2:42 off my time from a couple of weeks ago. Between the bladder infection and the faster time, I thought I was going to hyperventilate and have a heart attack all at the same time.

Officially DAY 1 of marathon training. My little dude had his last soccer game at 8:00 so I am opting to do my longer run tomorrow. I ran home from his game along 13400 S. It starts nice downhill so I decided I ought to try and run at or faster than the pace I am pacing Drop 13 on June 15 (1:50) I ran the down effortless at and below 8:15's. When I hit the up on 4000 W heading south towards Bluffdale, I slowed a little, but kept my overall pace at 8:30. I felt totally fine so I'm guessing I will have no trouble at all with the major down of Big Cottonwood. Doing a longer run with Julie tomorrow down from Copperton.

Got home and did push-ups - 3 sets for a total of 38 MAN push-ups. Shoulder is feeling better and I'm feeling stronger.
