My personal best marathon was my first marathon. I ran the St. George Marathon in 2005, and finished in 3:14. I was hurting at the end, and had to walk too much between miles 22 and 26, but I finished.
I had hoped to drop that time in 2006 and qualify for Boston, but hamstring pain and other distractions took their toll and I ended up finishing in 3:25.
Personal Bests:
Marathon: 3:14:53 (St. George, 2005)
Half Marathon: 1:31:02 (Hobble Creek, 2006)
5K: 19:50 (Murray Fun Days, 2006)
50K: 5:16 (Goblin Valley Ultra, 2006)
I don't know my PB for a 10K, but I've run a 10K in around 38:59, which may or may not be a PB. (I don't really like the 10K distance - too long to be a sprint, and too short to be an endurance run).
Short-Term Running Goals:
Get back into shape.
Long-Term Running Goals:
The Wasatch 100 in under 22 hours. Hell, ANY finish at the Wasatch 100 would be great.
Took a fairly bad fall skiing at Deer Valley today. I hit a patch of ice, and just couldn't dig in edges in. I ended up tweaking my left knee (feels like my IT band), so I'm guess I have to take some time off from running. Bleh.
