2014 TENTATIVE RACING SCHEDULE:
TBD Short-Term Running Goals: Run 6-days a week and maintain a decent base level of fitness. Upwards of 50-60 per week would be great. Adjust to my new work position, use time wisely, and keep negative stress at bay. Hopefully make a good run at Ogden this spring.
Balance family, work, running, and the other important things in my life. Long-Term Running Goals: Enjoy running and continue doing it consistently. Stay healthy and avoid injury as much as possible. Have fun!
Continue chasing PRs while I still can, particularly in the marathon and half marathon. Explore new races, improve training, build friendships, and learn from the wisdom and experience of the numerous great runners here in Utah. Run well into my old age.
Personal: I live in Sandy, UT with my wife (Lindsay) and 2 kids. I love running the roads through my neighborhood and near Little Cottonwood Canyon. I also do a fair amount of treadmill running at the Life Centre Athletic Club. Aside from running, I love road and moutain cycling.

Happy to report that in the last few days I've noticed significant improvement in the plantars in my left foot. Still not 100%, but the best its felt since mid-September. It'll be interesting to see how it feels later today and on tomorrow's run after doing this slight incline run today in the 4mm drop Kinvaras. Tried to stretch the calves amply after the run.

| A.M. - 8 miles on the hotel TM in ~51 mins. Intended to go out exploring here in Twin Falls (here for work), but the lack of warm running clothes and colder than I anticipated weather deterred me:
5 minutes @ 8.5, flat
10 mins @ 9.0, flat
15 mins @ 9.5, flat
10 mins @ 10.0, flat
5 mins @ 10.0, 1.0 incline

| Hokas. Short out and back. Turning out to be a pretty low miles week for me. I'll admit my interest in running has wanned a little bit recently. Pretty typical cycle for me and that's okay.

Probably would have been a better/longer run had I stuck around Idaho Falls last night and went running with Jeff. But, we finished the inventory earlier than expected last night and I was able to make it home to sleep in my own bed.
