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. Favorite Blogs: |

| Nice race in the rain. After 1/4 mile it was just me and Frank Mylar. He had 30 seconds on me in the 1st loop, I was catching him the beginning of the 2nd, felt like I was pushing it, but the wheels came off 1/3 of the way around. Just don't have the training, he probably got at least a minute on me, not really sure of the official time but I was glad that I pushed it. I'm staying even, I just need to get the miles in. Some soreness that day but ready to go on. Small race so didn't get anything, best part was the hot shower at home after a cold wet race. | | Add Comment |
