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.

| 2.4 miles into lab, 4.8 miles while a behavioral experiment was ongoing, 3.3 mile longer route home. Actually wore a Garmin for the first time in like a week, but don't have it handy. Went pretty easy, AP was probably 7:40-ish. I felt a little sluggish, but at least my legs weren't sore after getting really dehydrated and beat up in yesterday's longer outing.

| PM: 7 miles at 7:27 pace. To 9th E to 17th S to 5th E and back. Needed to be home, so cut it short with the expectation of doing more later.
An hour later: 4 more miles at very easy (8:20) pace. Loop of lower aves and federal heights, stopping at Smith's at 3.6 miles. Forgot to restart my watch after that, but it's about .4 the way I went. Really ready for sleep on the 2nd run, but don't want to skimp on the miles when I'm going to definitely miss Friday with travels, and have a really hard time getting in a full run on Thursday.

| Incredibly busy day. 2.4 miles up to lab at 10 PM, to get more work done.
12:30 AM: 9.2 mile long route home. Building to Capecchi to Foothill to 21st E to 21st S, along a meandering path through the neighborhoods to East High, along 13th East to South Temple, to E, back home.
7:50 AP. Felt like a zombie on most of the 2nd run, but I'm glad I got it in.

| 6 with Holly, then 7.1 more by myself. Holly's portion was my place to 5th E / 17th S and back. I had to drop off something in lab before leaving for my trip, so I did the loop mapped below solo. I've already packed the Garmin away, so no watch, but pace was easy.
I leave for Tanzania in the AM, so I'm going to get up at 5:15, go for an easy 6 or 7 miles, then travel for 25 hours. I won't have a chance to run on Friday, but I'm hopeful to get something reasonably long in on Saturday.

| 5:25am run with Holly. Lap of liberty from my place. Both Holly and I were very tired and sluggish, but I got it in. |

| Got into Tanzania after 26 hours of travels and went dancing with Daria at a really off-the-beaten path club called Glacier.
The locals were really chill and seemed like erally nice people. We tried two local brews (Serengeti and Kilimanjaro), which were pretty good, especially considering the low price. We had a fresh whole chicken for dinner. Awesome. Stayed at Moshi Backpackers Hostel, which was fun. Really tired, but this was a fun evening. No running.

6.5 miles easy in Tanzania with Daria from Kibosho to KCMC (after taking a taxi up to Kibosho). Incredibly fun experience. The locals were intrigued by us, as muzungus, and at one point, an older woman in sandals and 2 young children joined in for about a mile. Daria's Swahili is pretty good, so she conversed a bit. Whenever we passed people out working the coffee fields, they would yell something at the older woman and she would burst out laughing. Lots of fun. :)
I'd planned on doubling with something longer tonight, but I've slept a total of 12 hours in the last 80 hours, so it's just not going to happen.
Helped Daria do some stuff for Engineering World Health at TCDC later in the day. Was incredibly jetlagged, but survived!
