Because of overdoing it on my hip, I’m not planning on running 30 miles on my 30th birthday at this point. The hip is recovering fine, but I don’t think it would be healthy for me.
I also clarified and simplified for myself my goals for this year with running:
- Be healthy, run injury-free, and listen to my body.
- Run 30 miles…someday soon.
- 5/31/2010 – Bolder Boulder (10K)
- 6/5/2010 Golden Gate Dirty 30 (50K)
- 9/18/2010 - Steamboat Springs 50 (50 miles)
I’m going to focus on those goals, and I think it will be a blast. I think the races will be fun, but what really excites me is the excuse they will give me to head to the mountains and run every week in the meantime.
(Oh…and I just signed up for steamboat and golden gate…drew the line in the sand and crossed it. Anybody want to join in on the fun?)
