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.

| Really like these Adidas Adizero RC. 5 miles on TM. Didn't have a lot of time, so -1% grade to speed it up. 28:30. HR hit 190 sprinting it in at 5:00 pace

| South on the bike path near Beck and back. Not sure on the pace as I didn't wear a watch, but probably 7:30-7:40?

| Track. 4 mile tempo in 25:20 (6:23, 6:21, 6:25, 6:10). Felt harder than 6:20 average should, but that's ok!
I have more time now, so will try to pick up running again but also try to not be stupid and jump quickly into a 60 mile week and get hurt as I did 2 months ago. Still need to lose weight, but that will come with time.
I started using a Fitbit lately, originally just for the fun of seeing all the data, monitoring my sleep and resting heart rate, etc. However, it's motivated me to be better about walking places (rather than driving) and always taking the stairs. I work on the 5th floor of my building and frequently go up and down to get things from other buildings, so I managed to break 100 flights of stairs yesterday despite my run being totally flat. Kind of cool and probably good training for future steep trail races.

| 15 mile loop with altimeter-measured 33xx' of climbing (compared to 3000' even on mapmyrun, although I didn't map it perfectly there). Nice and slow pace on what was mostly trails, largely steep (upper 9s), but at least I never felt compelled to walk on either of the absurdly long uphills. Run is slower than elevation stats indicate, as 1200-1300' of the decline comes in something a little under a mile, making it way too steep to take advantage of.
