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. :)

parked down on 8600 S to run on 7th East. I did that last year and would run to Draper and back and It was usually a low traffic pretty flat street. I got to 3 miles heading south and they had ripped up the sidewalks in both directions and there was alot of traffic. So I turned around and at 4.5 I got a bloody nose, totally random and I was thinking the running God's were against me at that point. But I dealt with it and kept heading back toward my car, when I got there I decided that I felt good and so I kept going the other direction heading North and ran for a little bit more and then turned around. My bloddy nose came back at 8.5 or thereabouts but I just sniffed it away until I hit 9.

Ran into some headwind heading North, but still, pretty good run.

The other thing Ive been doing is, I was'nt sure if I was getting enough water in a day, so I fill up an old gallon of milk with h2o every morning and pour it into my water bottle. I make sure its gone by the end of the day but usually its gone by dinner with no problem.  Then I drink more. So that makes me feel good, at least I know exactly what Im getting every day.
