Running Accomplishments:

 I don't really keep good track, but here's what I found online:

Canyonlands Half '08: 1:34:35

Cherry Blossom 10 miler '08: 1:10:09 (alias jonathon strong)

Jingle All the Way 10k '08: 41:46

 

Short-Term Running Goals:

I really need to develop new goals.  It's been a busy year both professionally (field work) and personally (wedding, move,...)

It's time to get back on track and commit to some racing goals for next year.

Long-Term Running Goals:

The long-term goals are much easier--to stay healthy and happy! 

Personal:

Live in Broad Run, VA with my wife; work at US Geological Survey.  Baby cat running around to catch mice in our old house.

Just a walk in the park.  Literally.  Whitney State Park south of Warrenton.  It's very pretty there and set up for mountain bikes, so I will return soon with the new 29er

We hit planet fitness directly after work, and I did a fairly generic upper body workout and concentrated on my legs.  lots of squats and machine-work.  I knew I'd pay for it later, so I did 3 slow miles in the rain just to stretch out the legs and make sure they stayed limber.

Six miles on the good ol' Reston trail system again!  Haven't really done this since we moved out to Broad Run, but we had dinner with friends in town after work so I did a noon run.  Ran with another USGS fella Joe that I met on the trails.  Good guy, and we pushed each other well.  Legs a bit sore from too many squats yesterday...

Gym day.  Full upper body, since I couldn't do anything with my sore, sore legs.

Took the new 29'er out for the first run today, despite the lack of clips for the pedals.  Totally awesome ride.  It's smooth, it climbs well, and it's so freaking TIGHT!

6 miles at the peak of a very warm and humid day.  It hurt really bad, actually.  I'm just not used to this kind of heat yet, and my body told me so loudly.
