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.

AM:  Six lovely miles on the W & OD this morning.  My legs were a bit heavy, but not painfully so.  My upper back felt a little out of whack this morning, which disturbingly coincides with some adjusting I did on my own yesterday.  I hope I didn't screw it up.  It already feels better right now, but I'm also sitting at a desk right now.  We'll see what happens on tomorrow's run...  Beautiful weather in the forecast for this week!  Very excited to put some miles in.

PM: 12 miles biking home from work on the WOD.  Beautiful evening!!  Nice to use the quads differently.

Same ol' 6 mile out-and-back on the WOD.  The upper back started to give me trouble again today near the beginning of the run, and my legs were a bit heavy from biking last night.  About half-way into the run, however, I felt a bit of a kick, so I took it and sped things up.  When I did this, my form improved and my back felt fine.  Hopefully that's what my problem was, but I'm going to keep monitor it.  I don't want to screw myself by needing chiro visits.

8 STRONG miles on the WOD  trail.  The first 2 miles were a bit groggy, but everything clicked quite well thereafter.  Could have easily tacked on a couple extra miles at the end if it weren't for time constraints.

7 miles from my brother's house to my parents' house in Byron Center, MI..  Strong headwind the entire way, but the legs held up nicely.  Nice to be putting in some miles in the midwest again.
