Short-Term Running Goals:

Under 3 hours for a marathon. This spring however I want to break 310 and qualify for Boston, I only need 315. DID IT!! 312:05 - 309:48

Run a solid Boston Marathon and shoot for sub 3 fall 09, eventually want to run under 2:50

I want to break 36 mins in a 10 k race.

I want to break 17 mins in a 5 k if not lower.

Basically I want to see how far I can actually go in running, who knows.

Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to run as long as I can, it is life fuel. I am a Chiropractor and it is a good example for my pts and also my family who runs also.

Most importantly I want to be the best I can be to my family.

And yes run sub 3 fall 09. run 103 at the CRIM, break 36 for a 10k race, break 17 for a 5k. Oh ya, run a half one of these days and break 124. Did it 121 this summer

Personal:

Married with 3 children. 5 year old son named Julian, 2 year old Sadie and Elliot who is 7 months. Life is busy but fun and I believe we are living it to the fullest, running helps me do this.

Live in Windsor Ontario, love to vacation in our condo in Naples Florida.

My wife and I are both Chiropractors

3 miles in the am before my wellness talk, felt pretty crappy because I was rushed and I really don't care for my new shoes but I will wear them more on easy runs and long runs for more support.

3 miles in the afternoon, can't stop thinking about the race tomorrow. first mile I ran at 5:50 then I took it easy and visualized tomorrow's race. I know there will be some very good local elites there so winnig is not going to be my concern but its hard to let the ego go because I have a lot of people that are expecting me to do very well. I have decided to grind it out and do everything possible to run the entire race under 6 min miles, I know that this is easy for me on a tm or a flat fast course but tomorrow's course is challenging and its suspose to be crazy humid. I am looking forward to the opportunity because that is exactly what it is.

I think these races are great for me so I can be less nervous for races like Boston.

Good luck...you've been running great, so you should be confident in a strong performance.
