Goal Type:

Marathon Finish

Running Accomplishments:

A marathon runner just trying to enjoy good health and running long. 22 years between marathon 6 & 7, raising kids. 48 marathons and counting. Average finishing time ~  3:25. Want to keep this average above 3:30 as I continue to age deepin into my 50's.   Looking for a 3:12 in SLC 2012

Short-Term Running Goals:

Keep my SL Marathon time in "teens". Possibly break the teens (3:12 - 3:00).  Two screws in right knee gives me a reality check on my ambitions. I don't want to sacrafice my joint for too crazy of a goal. Good health is my real goal.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Continue running strong into my 60's, and add to my marathon count.  In 1982 I finished St. George at 2:57, 1 second behind a 60 year old. I've always  wondered if I could break 3 hours when I'm in my 60's. I'd like to find out.

Personal:

Married 26 years. Rosalie and I have 4 children. Love running hills, especially up Millcreek Canyon. I live 3/4 mile from its base.

Ran the Great Western Trail from top of big mountain to the top of bald mountain (3.4 miles) then back. Went with Dan and Christian Sorensen; Craig and Evan Romrell, and Emily. Really nice flowers in a meadow 1.5 miles up.

Rode the road ace to the gate. Hitched it up and then ran to the top. It was warm but very nice, and I had an awesome experience. My times were 36 minutes to the gate. Then running 15 to elbow; 44:35 to the top, and 37 back to the gate. I was exhausted the next two days.
