My accomplishment to date completing 15 marathons and 6 ultras....nothing fast....yet.

Short-Term Running Goals:

In the next 2 years I'd like to complete three 50 milers and a hundred miler before I turn 40. I'd like to break 5 hour marathon and then a 4:45 marathon and then keep improving. I’m starting to think I’ll hit 100 miles before I see a sub 5 hour marathon…..Geez.

Fifty miler #1: 2008 JFK 50 13:29:53

#2 Hearland 50 13:51 (got lost had to find road back)

#3 Bethel Hill Moonlight Boogie June 12, 2010...very soon

Two down....one more to go!

Long-Term Running Goals:

I would like to run 100 miles.

Personal:

I've got two wonderful kids who are 6 and 8. I want to pass on the joy of running.

I got 9 miles instead of 10 in before church. I didn't realize how sloooow I was going. I was listening to a book on my iPod and it was a snoozer. My pace picked up when I finally got tired of listening to the book and turned on the tunes.

I started out at 5AM and I was amazed at how clear and bright the night sky was this early. It was so beautiful only to be topped by the sunrise just before the end of the run.

My Elvis bobble head race partner was out there doing the St. George marathon as well as some of you ladies this weekend. I just got word that the weather wasn't very cooperative for the race. I hope everyone had fun nonetheless for all the hard work and training that you put in to get there. My hats off to all participants.

5 am on a Sunday. I'm impressed.
