26.2: 2:37:45 (2019 Mesa Phoenix) Short-Term Running Goals: Stay healthy!
2019 Running Schedule
Feb - Mesa Phoenix Marathon (AZ): 2:37:45. Lingering flu didn't help, but I still got a PR.
April - Bonneville Shoreline Trail Marathon (UT). Mostly just going to be a training run. Finally got myself into the sub-4 club last year, so I'll just have fun with it this year.
May - Stillwater Half Marathon (MN). Goal race for Spring. Looking for ~1:12.
October- Chicago Marathon (IL). We'll see where I'm at in Fall, but probably will be looking for low 2:30s. Long-Term Running Goals: Stay healthy, make improvements, maximize my potential. Personal: I am a bioengineering PhD currently working as a post-doctoral research fellow in the Department of Neurology at the University of Utah, where I design and improve neurosurgical approaches for treating movement disorders.
Summer 2018 update: I'm lazy about copying over from Strava, so find me over there for day-to-day runs until I eventually get around to copying everything over here.

| Longest run in awhile and leg didn't hurt at all! My place up Orchard to 2600 to 89 and back, with Holly. Didn't wear a watch, but checked the clock before and after. Kept it nice and easy, 41 minutes for 5.0.

| Out and back on Orchard with Holly, pretty late (10:30). Leg felt vaguely funny, but my whole hip assembly felt a little off balance, so it's probably just the legs were just a bit off balance. I guess I'll see how it feels tomorrow. I hope I can start getting some longer mileage soon!

| Leg was potentially slightly off, so I took a couple days to evaluate. Felt fine on this tester run.

| 8.5 with Fritz, JP, and Dan. About 500' of total gain on the Wasatch out and back at 7:01 AP. Felt harder than it should've, but that was expected with my complete and total lack of any semblance of fitness. Then, played 40 holes of disc golf at Creekside and jogged between all of my shots for another 2 miles. Finally, I skied for a few hours. Active day, but leg was 100% fine other than a very minor twinge about 2 miles into the run. I'm beginning to become confident that it is actually healed and the only things I feel in it are just related to scar tissue bugging me.

| Pretty sick this past week. Chills/body aches/upset stomach, sore throat, messed up sinuses, etc. Felt good to get back out today. 7.4 with Fritz, Dan, JP, and Josh at 7:28 pace. Memory Grove to 11th to Virginia to South Temple to 3rd west, and back.

| I haven't really been running lately, which sucks, but I've been struggling to find the time. Had time today, but I'm in such bad shape that going out for even a 10 miler seems unpleasant. Did 6, out and back, on Orchard, at about 7:00 pace on the dot. I'm going to try to make an effort to start running at lunch, as that's probably about the only time I can over the next month, unless I'm getting up at 5:00 or 5:30, and I'm never able to get to bed early enough to make that happen. For the mean time, I'm getting rid of any deulsions of racing any time soon. I'll just get in some miles first.

| Speed round of disc golf. Shot a -3 on 9 holes in 14 minutes. Pretty fun to play this way. Running between shots only affected one hole, in which I missed an easy par putt due to rushing and got a bogie, costing me a -4.

| Didn't run, but shot another -3 at U of U while waiting for Daria's UBEC poster to finish printing.
