Running Accomplishments:

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)

#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 went to the gym this AM to work out with Melissa A.K.A. Jose Bag.  Once again she lived up to her reputation.  We did upper body.  This is an area that is lacking.  The weights seemed low but the after burn (several hours later) is still kicking.  I'll have to work on that next week as well.

Tonight I did:

HILLS, HILLS, HILLS, HILLS......

Often and I can't explain it I find myself loving it when I run.  I love to run.  I love this stuff.  I might of had to remind myself of this while running hills tonight.  All in all, I had a quick (and hard) 4 miles tonight.  OK, it probably wasn't quick speedwise but the workout seemed to fly by.  I think I found my mojo once again.
