Running Accomplishments:

Marathon PR: 2:45, St. George 2007

Recent races: St. George Marathon, Olympic Trials Marathon, Moab 5 miler. 

Short-Term Running Goals:

I want to run faster. I'd like to win a race or two. I want to smarter and harder and increase my mileage without increasing my injuries. 

I'd also like to keep up with this and my other blog. You can check it out at novicexpert.blogspot.com. I don't keep track of my workouts there (just random thoughts on running), so the two don't really interfere.  

Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to win at least one marathon, make a better showing at the next Olympic Trials, try a few ultra-marathons and finish a 100-miler.

Personal:

I lead a simple life. I teach a couple of times a week and run. A lot. I also climb and ski (both snow and water) whenever I get a chance.  I think I'm addicted to sunshine.

Same as many tuesdays. Easy-ish miles broken up around my teaching schedule. Did my second run after all my classes...Not sure how I feel about this whole getting dark at about 5 o'clock thing. Wait, I am sure. I don't like it.

What do you teach?

I teach English 2010 at Utah State University. Perfect job. I do a lot of my work at night and run during the day (I only teach twice a week, so the rest of my time is pretty flexible). Great for training.

Agree about the whole getting dark thing. I don't get home from work till 4:30, so I will do EVERY run for the next 4-5 months in the dark (except for Saturdays).
