Short-Term Running Goals:

This year I am looking to race a bit more and hope to improve. I have started to train a bit differently using a more well rounded program. Including tempo and speed work (which up to this point I have slacked off on) Would like to be somewhere near the top of my A.G. it makes racing more fun.Also helping motivate people to become more active and enjoy getting out and enjoying all life has to offer.

 

 


 

Long-Term Running Goals:

have not really set long term goals just love the great benefits physically as well as mentally that have come with running and look to continue to grow and improve

 

Personal:

Married to an amazing woman who I get to enjoy living and loving life for all its worth. From our urban farm to exploring the backcountry. I have 2 boys who are about grown. My passion for running has not diminished over the years just evolved into an integral part of life like it always has been but a little different. Lucky for me Tiff puts up with my running obsession and doesn't complain too much.

Here's the Crocs story. It all started because I wanted to run a marathon in racing flats. About 3 years ago, I changed my foot strike. converted from heal striker to forefoot striker. Took a long time to build the muscles. Prior to this I was racing 5 & 10K's in my saucony flats. I loved them and wanted to run more in them more. This last year I figured I'd try to do my marathon training long runs in the flats (20 milers). It put a lot of stress on my feet but they kept getting stronger. After the marathon I was thinking about finding a cheep shoe to run in. I knew I didn't need much of a shoe. The 100 dollar sauconys are wonderful, but buying a pair every month is rough on the budget. I had been reading how Sasha has been running in Crocs, or water clogs in his case, I happened to have a pair here at home, so I threw them on and end of story. between the two pair i'm running in I have at least 1200 miles. you can buy them at Crocs.com for about 29.99 a pair. I have a pair of "Classic" crocs, and "Beach" crocs. I suggest the "Beach", they fit a little better. You need to wear socks. I did a 5 mile run without socks and got a bunch of blisters on the TOP of my feat, so I immediatly went back to socks. They are a little weird at first, but the suckers stay on your feet. It takes a while to trust them. I wear a size 10.5 running shoe, in the "Beach" style I run in an XL 10/11, perfect fit. I don't know if you are a heal striker or forefoot striker, but either way I think they will work for you. You're already doing 80 miles a week, your feet are already pretty damn strong. Give it a shot, can't go wrong for 30 bucks and I'm pretty certain you'll like them. FYI, you'll get a lot of funny looks. I also get a lot of "I didn't know you could run in those", to which I answer, "you're right, YOU can't, you've got to have pretty strong feet". (I don't know if that's true or not but I say it anyway, runners pride!) I'm real curious to know how these will work out. Let me know if you still have questions, as you can see, I love to talk about it and I'd like to see you be able to get by on 30 bucks instead of a 100. Save the Sauconys for racing.
