Lose some weight and get back into racing shape. Run more races this year.
Next race: St. George Marathon
Long-Term Running Goals:
Stay healthy and in good enough shape that I can more or less keep up with my youngest daughter.
Personal:
My wife Laureen got me into running. She went into the St. George Marathon Ten Year Club last year and I should go in this year. I have two daughters (15 and 21).
My PF wasn't bothering me hardly at all today, but my hip flexors were a bit sore starting out. I think a lot of the aches will go away once I get back on a daily running schedule.
It sounds like the winter running season hasn't treated either of us very well so far. I'm glad you're back at it.
Sometimes we need to apply the endurance principles we learn from running to other aspects of our lives as well (like overcoming PF, or having two cars break down within a couple of weeks of each other). Enduring usually isn't all that much fun, but it sure beats giving up.
The days are getting longer now and things are only going to get better.
