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')

I think your pace is great, dont be so tough on your self! Keep running and inspiring others to do so.

This was your pace running UP the canyon??? Are you nuts? Great times. What are you aiming for on Saturday for crying out loud?? YOU WILL DO VERY WELL!

Kelli, Oh, the faster times are coming down the canyon. 4 miles up, then 4 miles down. I have faster in me for the up part, I just haven't trained well enough to actually perform to that standard. (ok, faster like I think I could average in the mid 7's) I have my goal time for 1:40 Sat. I'm concerned that I will poop out. I'm deciding on how to approach the race, Easy easy for the first 3 or so, then gradually build or easy for more. The underlying goal is to finish. Lack of training will make getting a desired time difficult.

That is what I want to see by May next year, mid 7's on a 8-10 mile run.

Sunnyrun, Thanks for the encouragement!:-)
