Running Accomplishments:

Ran first marathon after 18 months of training (minus injury time) at age 52 in Logan, Utah on Sept 18, 2010.  Time was 4:16:56 compared to a goal of 4:15.

Second marathon was Oct 1, 2011 in the heat of St George.  Time fell to 4:52:27.

Short-Term Running Goals:

With two marathons behind me, my next goal is to run one in under 4 hours and potentially qualify for Boston within 2 years.

Long-Term Running Goals:

My primary physical goal is to live a long, healthy life and to stay active to the end.  While I can, I expect running to be a big part of that.

Personal:

Married with 8 children and 5 grandchildren.  Youngest child is 13.

Good run today, but I forgot to reset my garmin.  First mile was not really measured.  After that, I averaged 8:17/mile and felt strong the whole time.

Debated whether or not to run today.  Yesterday's run stressed my feet quite a bit.  Decided to run anyway and not push quite so hard.  Feeling good for now.  4.64 miles in 39:41 for an average pace of 8:33/mile.

Ran the HS track with 8 young men and 5 young men leaders.  Did slow miles and fast miles.  My two fast miles were 7:21 and 7:46, which is pretty good for me.

Ran 14.78 miles with young men and leaders.  From Provo temple to Timpanogos temple.  It was snowing when we started and still snowing when we finished.  I stayed with Ben the whole time, which made it a very slow run, but that was probably a good thing.
