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!)
