Running Accomplishments:

I have placed in the top three of my age group in the Valley of Fire half marathon twice I believe. (doing this from memory) I placed 2nd in my age group for the Coyote challenge one year for the 5K. (once more from memory, dont remember the year, gotta look it up.) and ran varsity cross country and track and field in High School. weee! Also ran at Dixie State last season, was the fastest but it was a lovely learning experience and oppertunity!

Short-Term Running Goals:

hmmm, I want to drop my 5K times to 25 minutes and change. 

I want to run the Diamond Valley Half Marathon all the way through comfortably.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Complete a half marathon in under 2 hours. Complete a marathon in under 5 hours.

Actually make it to run the St George marathon. (have planned on it but never really set my sights high and trained well to be confident enough to do it. One day...in my life-time hence long-term...I want to Boston Qualify. =) one day. ;-)

keep running strong and consistantly

Personal:

 my family is pretty much the most amazingest you can ever meet. (no biases of course lol) st george is super awesome and i love it. I love running, its fun but also relaxing and it truly does help you mentally physically and any other way you need. =)

No miles today. This is a, 'hey guys, something snapped and I am ready to get serious' kind of post. 

 I am sick of slacking, sick of being slow and knowing that I can get faster. I remember in cross country and track in HS where I was so close to getting to my goals, it gets a little hard, and I give up. Well, I am tired of doing that. I want to run fast, I want to run consistantly. I want to run a Half marathon and Full Marathon ALLLL the way through and feel good at the end. Yeah, those are my goals. I had to write them now, while I am feeling passionate. =)

 

Tomorrow I will add them to the cool side bar

<---over there, that has my fun stuff.

 and I will reach them.

So, for starters....since I havent ran in FOREVER. I am going to go run 3 miles at a nice consistant pace tomorrow, so I dont feel like I died and not want to run on Thursday. Does that sound reasonable? Am I starting up okay?
