To survive my marathon in a week.
Seriously, that's all I want this month.
Are we there, yet?

03/09 - Livingston Oval Ultra 6-Hour, 22.88 miles
05/11 - D3 50K 05/25 - What the Duck 12-Hour

To complete my training plan and stay injury free.
Get my mileage back over 100.
Cover the 13.1 distance in training, and then some.
Regain a little of my speed since dealing with PF.
Not to have another surgery.
Stay healthy..
The rest I'll take care of..
Regain my running mojo (physical & mental)
Set course PR on the KaiserPermanente 5K
Run 120 miles

Fear is a Liar
I have 2 chances to set a 5k PR.
If I don't, it means I am getting old and slow.
If I do, it means I am just getting old !
I'm so vegetarian I don't even eat animal crackers!
Lots of good goals this month
-hit over 100 miles (I feel like I have said this so many times and have yet to hit it)
-myself the two halfs I am running this month
-dress up like a zombie at the Dorney Haunt 5k
I'm currently on pace for 600 miles for September. I don't plan to make it there though.
1) Continue with my kamikase mini-version of a marathon plan.
2) Not re-injure my heel.
3) Run a semi-decent HM (no PR expected, just something that will tell me how much exactly I've lost since June)
4) Lose a few pounds to help with racing.
PRs: Boston Marathon, 3:27, April 15th 2013
Cornwall Half-Marathon, 1:35, April 27th 2013
18 marathons, 18 BQs since 2010
1. Continue training well for November 3-- at least two 18+ mile LRs, one should be 20, at least one speed session every week, at least 200 miles total ( is this one goal or 3?)
2. Race well in my 10K- A goal 49:00; B goal 50:00; C goal 52:18 (PR)
Mmmmm...beer
1. Stay healthy!
2. Keep the miles up and roll in some tempo runs before starting marathon training in Nov
3. Drop some weight. To assist with my marathon goals in the spring, I am rededicating myself over the fall/winter to dropping some more weight, less weight = more speed!
