Short-Term Running Goals:

Maybe run a few more marathons?? Stay healthy, motivated and consistent.  Races are fun, but unlike the hokey pokey, its not what its all about for me.  Its about health, sanity and feeling great about myself bc I can call myself a runner. :)

I took down my training schedule off of my cupboard today. Made me a little bit sad. Other then that, I went to the social security offices for some business which was annoying and ate a brownie. Now I think I will maybe go clean up dog poo.

Life is grand.

Very inspiring.

I too have post-marathon depression, it's really an odd feeling to not have some date on the calendar anymore, and nothing to tell you how far you should be running everyday.

Good Luck with that dog poo.

Time for a new goal! (and a few brownies.)

Rob, I didn't realize I would feel this way. Its kind of a let down and I don't quite know what to do with myself. Although I love the freedom of running whatever I feel like, whenever I feel like it, I do miss that feeling of wonderment and excitement that comes when training for a marathon.

Kim, you are right, it is time for a new goal. But I think I will run for no reason for awhile and then think of what to do next.

JD, Life is grand!

Mine is still up. I thought about laminating it:) I seriously want to keep it forever. I think I'll tape it to the back of my bib number.

I had the best brownie last night.

As for new goals...Ogden 2011 baby! Jeff told me registration opens Oct. 1st. Said the price for SLC marathon has already gone up $5. What's up with that? He's deciding which one to do.
