1:28:50 half marathon, 3:15:55 marathon Also Completed the Ironman Triathlon ( Ironman USA Lake Placid).
Short-Term Running Goals:
Knock 16 minutes off my marathon time and go sub 2:59:59 in the Flying Pig marathon May of 2010. Maintain at least 1 bike and swim per week while training for the Pig and resume tri specific training mid-May to compete in a couple half Ironman distances over the summer of 2010.
Long-Term Running Goals:
To maintain good health have fun , travel to some cool placs to race and hopefully get a little faster in the process. Qualify for the Ironman World championships as an age grouper and compete in the HAWAII IRONMAN!!!
Personal:
Married to a beautiful woman and have two great kids fortunatley they look like their mother !!
first 4 miles EZ effort probably 8:50 miles HR was 145 in this zone
next six miles at hard effort Pace was 7:19 per mile avg HR was 178 not sure why this effort felt so hard as I have ran faster and for further distance....
22 mile run today. Avg pace of 9:15 per mile. The first 11-14 miles my AVG HR was probably 145 and my pace was exactly 9:00 per mile. The last 6-8 miles were not as kind. I did pick up the tempo at mile 16-19 and a good portion of that was uphill. After that my HR stayed very high 165-175 range for the last couple miles which were not fast miles maybe 10:00. I was pretty tired the last two. Maybe beacuase I did not eat anything before the run and it really warmed up when i was out there. Also I ran 8 Miles at 7:00 P.M. the night before then Ran the 22 mile run at 9:00 A.M. ?? My twenty mile run three weeks ago did not seem nearly as brutal and it seemed I had more left in the tank at the end of that run.. OK No more whining....I plan on trying to get in two more 22-25 mile runs prior to Marathon on 10/15....
