I ran several unofficial runs now including:
Top of Utah marathon with brother George this summer (2009, Ogden, Utah), Park City Marathon with my friend Leslie this summer, and a 50-miler along the west coastline of LA with Ernie roller blading, and about 34 miles with Ernie around Palos Verdes Pennisula in Los Angles. Next week we are going to try to Pony Express 50-miler (Utah) and perhaps in the spring the St. George, Utah 50-K.
Short-Term Running Goals: Keep off the 10 pounds I lost over the summer, try to keep up 50 miles a week on various runs, and eventually to loose another 10 pounds within the next year (from 160 to the 149/150 range). Long-Term Running Goals: Regular exercize to keep my mood and health at optimum levels of functioning. I want to live a long, happy life! Personal: Married (husband: Ernie Horstmanshoff), three step-children, two grandchildren |

| | Went for a walk with Ernie, our visiting friend Rod Foster, and Lela our dog. It was nice to stretch our legs after the marathon on the weekend. | | Add Comment |
| | Walked around the airport with Rod Foster (6 miles). We then did a walk with Ernie in the evening over to Walmart with the dog (Lela). | | Add Comment |
| | Went for a walk with Rod to see two of the houses where he used to live here in West Jordan. Since I discovered George wants to run the Top of Utah marathon in Logan this weekend I decided to just do walking trips with Rod this week so I'm good to run a long one on Saturday. | | Add Comment |
| | Walked with Rod to 5400 South checking out grocery stores and dropping a book off at the post office. We were looking for a coconut cake mix. We are learning they are extremely rare in the west coast but apparently something that they have in Indiana. | | Add Comment |
| | Went to Alpine, Utah and did a hike. We (Rod, Ernie, & I) had to get back early so we didn't make it to the lake but hiked to some beautiful vistas and then came back. Picked up some beautiful vegtables from Pam Gonzalas, Jessica's mother-in-law. | | Add Comment |

Wonderful marathon in Logan (Top-of-Utah). George and I ran bandit and his friend Ranjan was an official runner. I had registered for this marathon a couple years ago but had to skip it as it conflicted with an academic conference so it was fun to get a chance to run it. George was not in good shape so I ran a little slower than my normal pace and we stuck together until mile 20 when I took off and let out a burst of energy for the last 6 miles. I then hiked back about 1/2 mile to meet George and follow him in to the finish line. It was mostly downhill and a very pleasant run for the fall time! George's brother-in-law (Kim's brother) hosted the three of us the night before and George and I drove up the canyon and left a car up there about 4am before they closed the canyon to traffic.
Trying to get ready and see how I feel about the 50 miler (Pony Express Run) with Leslie that we are planning. I think it will work out fine but I am thinking after the first 25 miles in the morning I might take a couple hours off during the heat of the day and then start walking again about 4pm until it starts getting cooler and then do a slow jog for the last 15 miles or so. At least a strategy is forming in my mind... | | Comments(1) |
