Goal Type:

Half Marathon Finish

Running Accomplishments:

Have trained for 6 months without hurting myself badly enough to miss more than a couple of  sesssion.    PR!

 

Short-Term Running Goals:

2009:

  •  5K under 20:00
  • 10K under 43:00
  • HM under 1:45

2010:

  •  Complete a marathon.  

Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to learn how to take care of my body well enough that I never have to stop running again.   Everything else is gravy.   Although I wouldn't mind getting fast enough to win the geezer class at some small races.

Personal:

 

 

50 years old.  I ran high school XC very enthusiastically  in the mid-70's. Health and chronic injury problems led to my giving it up shortly thereafter.  Picking up again after a 30-year layoff.

Easy hill run at Discovery Park in the sun.   Not bad for a winter's afternoon.

More snow,  more treadmill.   Slight head cold or something -- tired.   Was hoping for a longer tempo run with multiple paces,  but when my lungs started to burn I decided to err on the side of caution.  Last Friday's tempo run was considerable faster, albeit on the track.

 2 miles @ Marathon Pace (7:30) 85%

1 mile @ HM Pace (7:11) 89%

Snow last night,  so no grassy hill sprints today.  Treadmill instead.  35:30 for 4 miles (varied speed once per minute).

Burke Gilman out and back from SPU.    8:30 pace,   145 bpm (78%).  1:50.

Longest run yet,  pretty straightforward.  Form held up until the last couple of miles.
