Short-Term Running Goals:

If things go as planned...  I will be running Boston in 2015 and I want to break 3 hours.

Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to run till I die and qualify for the Boston Marathon, both events may occur simultaneously...  They didn't :)  I hit my BQ time in St. George 2012!

Personal:

In 1 1/2 year I went from 225 lbs. to now around 165-160 lbs.  In 2010, my first year running, I ran two half marathons, two 5ks and one 10k.  My wife and I started with the Salt Lake City Half Marathon and ran it together.  It was a great way to spend time together and kick off our new found pass time.  I'm now addicted to running and I plan on running for the rest of my life.

Congrats on a great race at a tough course to both you and Alisa.

Dude, give me a report, I like to know how you are doing.

Thank you both... It was a hard run but great for building strength. We are still training for the Pocatello Full but we will still throw in a few halves here and there. We'll probably run the Idaho Falls half. You guys?
