Short-Term Running Goals: Run a 5K under 25 minutes. Under 22 minutes. Under 20 minutes. Run a 10K in under 45 minutes. Run a 1/2M in 90 minutes.
Long-Term Running Goals: Run faster and farther... without major injuries. The predictable soreness in my right knee reminds me of how irrational this form of exercise is, I bought a pair of Five Fingers and my knees have never felt better. I'm now faster than I was during my 20s and 30s.
Achilles tendonitis or tendonosis is my latest injury. The Five Fingers have been turned in and I'm back my old kicks with lots of heel support. Personal: I'm married, teach economics at a liberal arts school in RI, conduct research on American Indian economic development, trying to befriend a goat farmer, and looking to improve my espanol. Expecting our first child in mid October (check)!! His name is Tucker. |

| 4 treadmill miles, last one at a 7:57 pace.
I'm on family leave next semester so I'll have more time to devote to family and running. Plus, I'm over a 2-week long nagging cold so I'm ready to start the build up towards running a half in late March/early April. My goal over the next 3-4 weeks to get comfortable at running 30-35 miles/week, all at slow to moderate pace, and take this weekly pilates class at the local y. After a month of that, I'll work in some speed workouts and run in a chilly 5K in late January to see where I stand.

| 3 slow miles outside, slow and unremarkable. The plan is 8 treadmill miles tomorrow. I'll have to test out the new tv's at the y~.

| 5 miles at roughly 9:00 pace. Walked almost the equivalent along the bike path. Good end to the first week of building a base.
