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

Still coughing a lot, hate feeling ok but can't kick the itch.

Ran 5 with Julian who is almost 6, we stopped once to look at turtles, it was really hot, great sweat, glad I left the watch at home, seemed really slow.

3 more running days in Florida, will get a 16 in on the 31st.

Todd, your running times look really good, keep it up. You mentioned you want to figure out how to reduce the file size of a picture. Try this.

1. As a start you can download a freeware called Printkey 2000 at the following link.

http://www.freewareweb.com/cgi-bin/archive.cgi?download=1&ID=292

2. I love Printkey 2000 to manage screenshots of all kinds.

3. You can either use the Printkey 2000 tool or just do a file save of the picture and save it as a JPEG or GIF file. Then capture the picture and do a copy/paste or do a file link save into the fastrunningblog picture section.

4. Once you get the hang of capturing a picture into the blog you can change pictures very easily.

5. Good luck and keep on running.

Todd, also a web page that is an awesome resource for running information and guidance. http://www.letsrun.com/

This web site has a wealth of running information. If you scroll about 2/3 of the way down the web site you will get to the section titled: Training Advice:

A wealth of the training advice reinforces what Sasha Pachev suggests as the keys to a life of successful running and achieving your running potential.

A few of the articles that I have looked at are noted below:

- Top 10 Training Tips

- No Shortcuts

- Wejo Speaks: Why I Sucked in College (an awesome article)

And looking at the titles of many other articles suggests there is a wealth of great reading here.

Enjoy, Paul
