Plenty of half marathons, 10ks, 5ks, etc. Some PRs, some age group awards.

Get closer to my marathon PR and eventually bust it!

Be more competitive (in time and in spirit) in shorter races. 

Run a marathon before June 2009.

Run another marathon before Jan 2010.

Run at least 4 days a week.

Boston Qualifier...even if it takes me til I'm 80!

4 miles with my new running group tonight. It was getting dark so we had to cut our run through the forest trails short. I really like the people in the group! Met 2 new people last night and they were telling me about places I should go on the coast... I am especially interested in the section of the coast where there is a colony of seals!! Neat! 

My Garmin wasnt ready when we started running, so my mileage was off, but one of the other guys had us at 4.3 miles. There is a timed 5k on Thursday that I will try to make it to. The guy that plans out the speed workouts said that there was only one other person who showed up last Thursday! But he said that the 5ks typically get more of a crowd. We shall see!
