Running Accomplishments:

Ran 2:57 marathon in college 20 years ago.

Most all of my PRs are from when I was 29 and 30.

10 Mile PR 57:22

15K PR 53:24

10K PR 34:29

Start running again and run 1:30 for a half marathon this fall.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Break 3 hours for the marathon

Personal:

I am married and have two wonderful kids, 14 and 10.  I've been running since 1982.  I never get "basic" injuries.  I always get the real nasty career threatening kind, like stress fracture of the sacrum, ganglion cyst clamping  down on my peroneal nerve.

Today ran a 14 mile pace workout concentrating strictly on marathon pace management for next week's race.  Temp was cool 29 but manageable.  Energy level wise, felt great.  Left hip was starting to get a little tight toward the end but I attribute that more to running 9 miles lastnight and then doing this.  Splits were very consistent.  I need 6:53 to break three hours, 6:46 pace to break my PR.  

Splits:

1 7:25

2 6:50

3 6:49

4 6:45

5 6:49

6 6:47

Very controlled pacing, you have the correct sense of speed for a PR, you just need to hold it for those extra 12 miles.

Nice workout, and merry Christmas.

Thanks Will. I'm getting excited about the race. Getting some good time with the family this week too. Merry Christmas
