| 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. Long-Term Running Goals: Enjoy the Swim, Bike Run thru Life - Hope to Run a Few Races Support Sylvie - Be a good coach - Support Jenna, Jeremy, Taylor and Bonnie - my kids are now into running, who would of thunk it. long term goals, recover from the ankle sprain, accept was it, have fun racing, mountain biking, faster swimming.

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: |

Hard hour ride at lunch, 21.6 mph pace, good effort, brick day, ran 5.25 miles with Sylvie and Roxie on tired legs. I am taking the approach to do many more bricks, increase the leg work with lower miles. Sylive yells at me if I get ahead of her, no trophy at the end, then when I stop she gets ahead, not fair. Anyway, good fun to keep ahead of her at times, took her almost a mile to catch back up with me after the never bear stop to meet and greet Roxie to two dalmations.
Nice to get out.

Summer games Tri at Gunlock
Choppy water, swim not so good, pull a rib muscle, maybe the wet suit too tight.
Very good bike ride, faster than last year, run was ok, ran 90% of the run, other athletes were real nice.
Went to SHAC after the race and swam a mile.
Summary, need work on the swim and a coach - likely need a new wet suit, too constrictive.
