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

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.

Went to High Uintas wilderness area for hiking and fishing with the Priests.  That must be the most beautiful place on earth.  The mountains kept towering higher and higher.  The lakes and streams were story book  perfect.  We camped at 10,600 feet and found the best fishing at 11,000 feet, which is near the tree line.

Not very dedicated on my running, but finally got back to it today.  5.52 miles in 45:48 for an average pace of 8:19/mi.  Miles 3, 4, and 5 were all under 8 minutes.
