| Location: Arlington,TN,USA Member Since: Jun 01, 2007 Gender: Male Goal Type: Age Division Winner Running Accomplishments: One of the highlights of my short running career thus far has been a rather surprising 10k finish. I had never cracked sub 40:00, but while in training for a marathon, surprised myself with a 38:49 (it remains my PR). 5k - 18:45 10k - 38:49 1/2 - 1:26:57 Mar - 3:15:54 (BQ by a few seconds!) Short-Term Running Goals: Set PR's at every distance and count down to becoming a Master runner. Realistically, I would like to run sub 18:00 this year and lower both the 1/2 and full marathon times. Not many chances here in Memphis to run a good/fast 10k. Oh yeah, try to juggle running/racing with a full-time job, home business, family, and a new baby. Long-Term Running Goals: In August of 2008, I begin training for my first sub 3:00 marathon. The race will be the St. Jude Marathon in Memphis, TN. (my hometown).
* I began blogging, again, to help me maintain my motivation for my attempt! Encouragement, advice, etc. is always welcome. Personal: I am married with one little girl (age 5) and a little boy (12 months). My daughter is beginning to run a little with me at her own leisure, I don't push her. My wife runs as well and I hope my son will someday run. |

| Hwy 205, 9:30 a.m., sunny, 36. I have had a minor cold, so I didn't know what to expect. The first mile was a bit quick (7:28), so I decided to alternate MP w/EZ pace. Miles 2,4,5,7 were at 6:55 pace. I ran the last .50 miles @ 6:21 pace. I had a total of 4.5 miles @ MP. I felt okay, despite the cruddy cold. 8.1 miles in 58:25 (7:15 pace). |
