Running Accomplishments:

Eden 10-miler 65:47

Half Marathon 1:26:17

5K 18:01

 I rank somewhere between the competitive recreational runner and the competitive highschool runner. Here's the scale:

10 - World record holder; 9 - Olympic Athlete; 8 - National elite; 7 - Professional runner; 6 - College All-american; 5 - College runner; 4 - Local elite; 3 - Competitive runner; 2 - Recreational runner; 1 - Jogger

It's a tough scale.

Short-Term Running Goals:

 

  • Run for fun and health, be fit in my 40s
  • Run a strong half marathon, under 1:25, good, under 1:20, great.

Long-Term Running Goals:

  • Be a disciplined runner, to be competitive in my age category, and feel strong while racing.
  •  Somehow actually put together a full year of running: increased discipline and decreased distraction and injuries
  • Be a 17/36 guy for 5K/10K (not realistic now)
  • Be a competitive Master's runner

Personal:

Spoken for, Christian, piano player, soli deo gloria, at least that's the ideal. Living for Triune God, beautiful wife, cute sons, self; hopefully in that order but Adam's nature and my own choices, not to mention worldly temptations like to play with the ideal.

Idealism, tempered by reality, with a healthy skepticism.

Short w/u w J before DG. Watching 2 guys easily put it out there, still don't feel like I get my timing right, reach back, side-plant, pull foot, hips, torso, shoulders, elbow, wrist, full follow-through. Grip it and rip it. 1m

Park peri with wind, wind-up and go. 2.5m

Tue - Got on Speedy's team, he can still accelerate in the end games, made my shots, didn't force it, guarded by younger, darker, quick guy. He could get around me but always seemed to go right. Got on a team that won 3, then off, good team. Bros, Speedy, me and hustler (saw at DG b4). Saw 2 guys from small ward haven't seen in 2 years.

Wed - Me, general and tall fundamental ag young regulars, finally beat them. I had some good shots, mid-range, fake to 3. Also won one w short smart guys, I provided the offense, but I also pushed it outnumbered and o/c, got to push and pause, find the shot/pass/drive. 3m
