Short-Term Running Goals:

I have decided to follow Sasha's advice in his article "How to Qualify for Boston."  So this winter, I am working on my endurance by running six days a week.  I started by running three miles everyday and as long as I feel like going on Saturday (but never more than 3x my daily distance).  I am slowly trying to build my daily mileage to 10 miles per day.  I hope to get there by early next summer. 

Long-Term Running Goals:

To run until the day I die. To run a marathon under 3 hours. 

Personal:

I am married to my beautiful wife and I have three children.

Long run up Emigration Canyon and back with the group.  I was only planning on running 8 miles but got peer pressured to keep going.  It actually felt good to run long again, but I probably need to keep my long runs more in line with my weekly training so I don't get hurt.  

 I also went snowshoeing later in the day with a friend.  It's the first time I did that in years.  It felt great.  We only went a couple of miles, so I didn't count it here.  Good workout though (especially after 15!)

Easy run from the office to Liberty Park and back.  It was chilly, but it felt good to run on the packed snow.
