Recent 10k time. 38:52 November 2009
Short-Term Running Goals: Compete in another Half Marathon and get a decent time - under 1:20 would be great! Step up to 5 days a week running.
Long-Term Running Goals: Keep running with as little injury as possible and achieve the sub-3 dream (Accomplished!!! 2010). Next dream is to improve my half-marathon and 10km time.
Personal:
I am 40 years old and married with two young children. I have been training on and off for the last 10 years. I have been training three times a week for the most part but hoping to step that up to 5-times a week and see if I can avoid injuries, although 3 seems to be about as much as I can manage with work and family. "Run less, run faster" is my running bible that has helped my do just that. 1 steady, 1 quick and 1 long seems to keep my fast enough for my input.

Erina had been sick this wek so I couldn't go running.
LSD 20 miles. Had a job getting up after a latish night getting little one and big one to bed. I dragged myself from the warm bed after what seemed an inadequate sleep because I couldn't go for a long run last week. I knew that if I failed on this one I would be doomed. I took it easy, running down to Mazda factory and back, up the hill behind Ushita and then to the rive for some more laps. Fortunately I met up with some other runner doing a little race (10km) so I tagged on some guys shoulder for an easy 7-30-45 pace running. I then carried on for another 10 km to round off the 20miler.

Speedy session. Really windy going up a slight slope but easier coming back with the wind behind me. Warmed up for 2 miles and did a mile warm-down. Felt good but hard with that wind.

| Woke up at 5am for a ten-miler as tonight I am busy. It was one of the coldest mornings this winter and my bones creaked as I stepped out of bed. No actually I was well on for an early run and I soon got going. Had to take a toilet break halfway but I felt ok. My watch's battery went so it was a fun run, untimed/ I was buzzing all day after the early one though. Tired but elated that I did this - I am hoping to do this again soon, although I did have a slight niggle on the outside of my right knee - something I have never had before. |

| 8am start. Was not able to run this week as family was busy and Erina sick. After 5 miles my right knee was killing and I was close to finishing but after a toilet stop I reviewed things telling myself I will go home if it hurts when I start again, but miraculously it went away and never returned during or after the run.
