| Location: MURRAY,UT,US Member Since: Jan 01, 2006 Gender: Male Goal Type: Other Running Accomplishments: Stay in the game, keep in the moment - have conquered a few of the holy grails of running - sub 3hr marathon, ran Boston and qualified for Boston at Boston, 10K PR under 6 min miles, won a couple of 5Ks in my early days of running, running for 30 years and ran 39 marathons. The transistion to the back of the pack has not been easy, but, acceptance, stay in the game, root for others, enjoy the rest of the journey. Another off the bucket list second = Provo Half IM - have done 6 open water Tris and 6 pool Tris. Gave the STG IM a good Tri, hope to take another shot at the IM. Short-Term Running Goals: 2013 Race Plan - STG Half IronMan, Lake Mead Rage Olympic distance, STG spring relay tri, STG half marathon, STG marathon, Cozumel IM, Utah Summer Games Triathlon at Gunlock, Murray 5k with family and Utah Half Distance Triathlon, 187 mile red rock relay, STG marathon, *note of clarification - cross training miles from biking and swimming calculated as follows: (as someone may wonder) 20 mile an hour bike = 5 cross training miles (those not familar with a 20 mph pace, good bike effort for long distance, swimming, convert 1 hour swimming to 5 cross training miles. For those that do not swim much, great cardio workout.

Personal: BSRools, the B stands for Brent and the S for Sylvie. The Rools come from my personal running rools over the years: Never complain once the run starts, allways pick up the pace into the wind and always pick up the pace on a hill. If someone whines, pick up the pace. Once a goal is set, no whining, regardless of setbacks. We were running when running was not Kool. Kool comes from a race story, ran my first race, 5K wearing a "beanie that had "Kool Aid Kid" Favorite Blogs: |

Swim, NW pool - senior day $1 entry - old farts get a break - swam 1 mile, 1800 yrds without stopping, forgot to time myself, worked on stroke.
After work - 24 mile spin - good effort, weights, rubber band lats, ball crunches, 2 x 1:30 wall squats and some core balancing.
I signed up for the biggest loser challenge at work, no chance of winning, but, may hoping for motivation to drop ten pounds. Scales are fickle, 66.8 lbs 3 days agon and 61 today, can't trust them. No way to lose weight that quick, goal 2 lbs a week.

*Note, my oldest daughter is really excited about her first half in a couple of weeks, may need to give it a good effort and attempt to stay with her. |

The wind, the slush, the weather - 10 miles north to 4800 south, then back to Garnder Village and home. My feet were wet from the slush, shuffle run about 2 miles, cheetah walk - seen about a half dozen runners, they gave me motivation to shuffle run and delay the pass. Went to the post office, sent back a pair of NB shoes gotten for Xmas, gave me run spots.
May spin an hour later to today - or just veg the rest of the day.
I kept looking for bloggers running, did not recognize anyone. Sylive made me hot chocolate to warm me up. lazy day.
