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.

Did the double-double today:

noon: ~1800 meters in the pool with the crew.  8 150's and a bunch of additional things.  

pm: The Turner to Gaines 3 mile out-and-back.  I felt pretty stinking rusty at first, but fell into a groove by the end.  Still probably ran a pretty stinking slow pace...~8:30's

Approximately an hour at the gym after work followed by about 3.5 miles on the trails to loosen everything up.

This may very well be more like 5-5.5 miles, but it's every bit of a 6 mile effort.  I ran all trails yesterday up to the top of Bull Run mtn and around the entire preserve, but back in, and then out on East End trail.  My legs were a bit sore from squats on Tuesday, but it didn't affect running performance.  Kept the pace very conservative so that they'll stay somewhat fresh for thursday and possible friday runs.

noon: 2200 meters with the folks at Lake Newport pool.  Straight-forward but tough workout.  The triathlon crew is in full training swing and these dudes (and especially the girls) are really pushing the pace.  I'm pretty wiped out by the end.

pm: Just under 2 hours at the gym.  Kristin was going to meet me there at 5:30, do a quickie, and then we were going to take off together.  She had to work til 6:30...didn't get there til 7.  So 5-7.  Way too much.
