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.

Finally back from the field.  Looks like i'll be back for a while, too.  I haven't put in many miles the past few weeks because, well, it gets tiring being on your feet for 11 hours/day.  But I managed to do a couple runs here and there, about 5 miles a pop.  Also spent some time at the YMCA in Easton swimming laps and lifting weights.  I'm pleased overall with the fitness i was able to maintain while being away from home. 

Pm: 14 mile bike ride home from work followed by ~4 beautiful miles on the WOD into a setting sun.  Gotta love fall, man.
