Running Accomplishments:

Boston marathon 314 

Half 121:52 July 09 - Running from Cancer Tecumseh

10k - 35:29 (TM)  36:46 won the race outright, Sept 08

5k - 16:59 August 09

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

Met Matt and his buddies from the Naples running club.  Did 2.5 warm up and cool down.

6 tempo, 3 miles at 6:59 and then picked it up for the last 3 miles at 6:39.

Felt a bit like before the stress fx.  Its so nice running at 530 am with no shirt, knowing that back home its cold and snowy.  Back to reality on the first of Jan.

Happy holidays everyone. 

If anyone has any Chiropractic questions, fire away, I love talking about mechanics and overall wellness.  Once I figure out how to compress a picture I will through a picture of myself and my family.  Runners high right now, better stop writing.

Good job on the tempo. So how do you know when a stress fracture is healed?

I'm lucky to have quick access to an MRI which gave me an idea of the degree of stress fx. It was funny one day it still hurt and then all of a sudden the next day I ran 6 miles with little discomfort.

But I would not wish this injury on anyone, I remember waking up for our baby to feed him and I was almost in tears just walking with him and yet I thought I would wake up healed.

Nice PB's, wow.
