Short-Term Running Goals:

Stay healthy!

Would like to BQ - need to shave 23 minutes off PR.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running.

When I started running my wish that turned into a goal was to qualify for Boston. Just so I could say "I qualified for Boston."

AFTER BQ, I think I will do some Tri events. For sure some Half Ironman events, and see where that takes me.

Personal:

Married to Kelly (with a 'Y')

That is ridiculously fast.

Dude, I'm just trying to keep up with YOU!

Nice run.

From Jon A on Wed, Jun 03, 2009 at 13:02:20 from 67.214.249.195

Thanks Paul. I work with Mattk and can only wish I could stay with you guys.

Jon, Stop running so stinkin' fast and that will ease up the knee :) Looks like you've given up on the HR moniter. I think I will too and just go by effort level.

From Jon A on Wed, Jun 03, 2009 at 15:08:31 from 67.214.249.195

Jeff, I haven't given up on the HR, I just don't post that data. But, since you ask, here is today:

Mile Pace Max Pace HR-Ave HR-Max

1 7:46 6:45 155 167

2 7:28 6:51 165 172

3 7:22 6:09 163 171

4 7:13 6:34 160 166

5 6:45 5:23 165 171

6 8:02 7:06 161 170

Now if I can figure out how to use it. Effort? Mile 2, 3 and 5 hit maxs. 2 and half of 3 was more uphill. Mile 5 is a little down/flat. Hum. Looks like my effort level should be 170 - 172 bpm for a 7:20 pace or better regardless of hill (within reason). Makes my brain hurt. :-)

From Smooth on Wed, Jun 03, 2009 at 16:40:59 from 71.36.64.213

WOW! Check out that 6:45 and best at 5:23! You're a speed demon! GREAT JOB! Keep it up!

From Jon A on Wed, Jun 03, 2009 at 16:49:49 from 67.214.249.195

Thanks Smooth, but don't be fooled. I won't deny I worked hard for the 6:45 average and even shook my fist in the air when I saw that on my watch. But the "5:23", well that was when I jumped off a cliff and the GPS caught my free fall. :-)

Just kidding, wouldn't that be cool if I could run that speed for a whole mile? Wow.
