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.

6 miles on Tybee Island, GA.  Just kicked off 2 week stint of field

work, and the running is going to be a slice of heaven.  From my house

on a Savannah River canal I'm on the beach in 10 minutes, then it's

smooth sailin' with shells and gulls and sunsets.  I had to pinch

myself tonight.

I had an amazing run tonight.  Simply amazing.  After a few hours of constant drizzle here in Georgia, I decided that I had to make a move rain or shine, so I suited up and headed out.  Right when I got to the beach, the sun dropped below the cloud level and lit up all the rain drops around me in an incredible glow behind me and to my right that felt otherworldly.  This transitioned to a purple to my right, and a deep blue right in front of me.  To my left was a gigantic, bright double rainbow over the Atlantic with flocks of seagulls flying all around.  I felt like I was iin a sci-fi movie and a unicorn was going to jump out at me or a mermaid would surface and wave to me.  Totally awesome. Like the perfect birthday present:)

Beautiful day today, and I would have loved to run and run and run, but after these couple days of field work + running my legs were telling me they wanted a little break.  5 fairly relaxed miles were just fine for me!

6 miles--same as before on the beach.  Legs are screaming at me for a day off, so I shall listen tomorrow.
