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.

no miles this weekend--blitz-painted in-laws' beach house in two days; ceiling, walls, and trim.  Back to exercise tomorrow.

6 miles on Reston trails!  It's been a while, but Kristin had to stay late at work and I noticed an old pair of running shoes and some shorts in my office, so I hit the trail.  A gorgeous 60 degree/sunny day turned south the instant I got outside and a cloud-burst drenched me immediately.  There was thunder and lightning, pea-sized hail, the works.  I cursed the weather for a bit, and then decided it was pretty awesome.

6 miles on the roads near home again--things are going to be too sloppy on the trails to do much of anything for a while.  Heck I'd rather get barked at by big dogs anyway.

Feeling strong with a relaxed (~8:00) pace.

2000m in the pool.  A fairly tough workout of 8 50's, 12 100's, 8 50's, and a warm down.

I still don't have my breast stroke kick to where it should be because of something in my hip flexor...it's sort of driving me nuts, and I feel like a trip to the chiro may be in order.

I'm calling this run 8 miles; from home up Bull Run Mtn, around the perimeter of the conservancy, out Mountain Road, and then back on paved roads.  It's probably more like 7.5 miles or so, but it's 8+ effort with elevation.  Strong legs!  Funny how more prone I am to have a good run when on trails.
