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

Not very motivated to start, great finish.

Ran around a bike track which was .80 of a mile, got sick of that so I headed out into the county.  Each mile ranged from 7:07 to 7:25.  I felt really tired around 9 miles but had a spike on the way back so I decided to run the a 5k at a bit better than MP.  6:46, 6:34 and 6:21.  Cooled down for the last mile home.

Tired and I feel like I should take a day off tomorrow regardless so I guess I will be have a free lunch to get my paper work done.

Have 2 pairs of shoes on order, excited.  Around 500 right now.

 

Hey David, how did you do in your 5k?  My guess if it was flat and good weather - 18:49??????????????????

Flat, good weather, bad day...20:01. I ran the first mile in 5:55 and then completely bonked. My legs were just rubber. I've been going through a bit of a funk for the past couple of weeks (ever since returning from FL). Training has been good, but the legs don't seem to want to move. May have been from doing full squats in the gym for the first time in a couple of weeks, lack of sleep + picking up a few lbs in Florida. I have a chance to redeem myself this weekend on a fairly challenging course (7.1 miles w/9% uphill grad on mile 7). Anyway, I set the bar low and hope to be in the 18's by the end of summer...we'll see.

Great finish to your run today!
