Boston marathon 314

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

wanted to go outside but my watch and ipod had no life to them so i drove to the gym.  decided to run a type of tempo to test the legs.

3.1 at 10.2 - 18:15 (felt awesome and wanted to run 10k that pace but faded quickly)

instead of stopping and taking a break i wanted to similate what its like to not stop while being close to death!!  i ran at 6:35 pace but added 6 min mile pace here and there.

ended up running 38:16 for 10k, happy considering I finished Boston only a week ago.

need to plan out a race schedule and program.

Outside run, first since Boston. 

6 degrees but windy, worked into the wind the first 5 miles or so and ran just under 35 mins.  Had a bit of a twinge on my right knee but nothing alarming.  33 mins for the last 5 miles with the wind.

Good negative split.  I am starting to feel like I can do some regular training.

wanted to run 20 miles yesterday but my right knee was not right, it-band.  I did not have to stop but I was concerned every step.  still managed to run 7:25 pace, windy and mild.

feels good today but I guess i will rest it today.  i have only had 1 day off, day after boston so i guess there is a reason, i know its not serious because i won't let it be.

i was discouraged becasue i felt so slow in boston after the stitch and ran 314 but yesterday during the run i would have been happy with a 314 if i had to continue.  this simply means i need some mental work and i need to not worry about pace so much, it gets me down.
