Goal Type:

Olympic Trials Qualifier

Running Accomplishments:

Best marathon: 2:23:57 (2007, St. George). Won the Top of Utah Marathon twice (2003,2004). Won the USATF LDR circuit in Utah in 2006.

Draper Days 5 K 15:37 (2004)

Did not know this until June 2012, but it turned out that I've been running with spina bifida occulta in L-4 vertebra my entire life, which explains the odd looking form, struggles with the top end speed, and the poor running economy (cannot break 16:00 in 5 K without pushing the VO2 max past 75).  

 

Short-Term Running Goals:

Qualify for the US Olympic Trials. With the standard of 2:19 on courses with the elevation drop not exceeding 450 feet this is impossible unless I find an uncanny way to compensate for the L-4 defect with my muscles. But I believe in miracles.

Long-Term Running Goals:

2:08 in the marathon. Become a world-class marathoner. This is impossible unless I find a way to fill the hole in L-4 and make it act healthy either by growing the bone or by inserting something artificial that is as good as the bone without breaking anything important around it. Science does not know how to do that yet, so it will take a miracle. But I believe in miracles.

Personal:

I was born in 1973. Grew up in Moscow, Russia. Started running in 1984 and so far have never missed more than 3 consecutive days. Joined the LDS Church in 1992, and came to Provo, Utah in 1993 to attend BYU. Served an LDS mission from 1994-96 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Got married soon after I got back. My wife Sarah and I are parents of eleven children: Benjamin, Jenny, Julia, Joseph, Jacob, William, Stephen, Matthew,  Mary,  Bella.  and Leigha. We home school our children.

I am a software engineer/computer programmer/hacker whatever you want to call it, and I am currently working for RedX. Aside from the Fast Running Blog, I have another project to create a device that is a good friend for a fast runner. I called it Fast Running Friend.

Day of records today. Jenny ran a PR in the 400 - 76.1 (18,19,20,19). Stephen broke 3:00 in the 800 for the first time running 2:58.9 (45, 45, 45, 43). William improved his 800 by 3 seconds with 2:44.1 (40,41,42,41).

I got my distance in, but it was in segments running with each kid - as usual, except the kids had it split in segments as well.

Jacob and I did 3 miles down the canyon in 17:05.1 (5:40, 5:42, 5:43). This is Jacob's course PR by 10 seconds. When we were at 2 miles I thought we would be sub-17:00, but he struggled some in the last mile. Nevertheless, I was very happy to see him run 17:05.

Otherwise, usual distances for everybody.

Did 2x2 down the canyon with Chad. The first one we ran together in 11:07.7 (5:35, 5:32). On the second, we started at around 5:32 pace for the first half mile, then Chad started struggling. I slowed it down for him, we went through the mile in 5:42. But he was still struggling. After 1.25 in 7:09 (87 quarter) he started falling back. I waited 200 meters, then it became clear he was not going to recover to 88s, so I decided to give it a push and ran the last 0.625 in 3:17 - so 11:10.2 (5:42, 5:28). Joseph and Jacob did 8, Stephen 5, William 6, Matthew 1, Jenny 10, Bonnie ran 5 with us uphill in 40:53.

Time trials today. Jenny ran an 800 PR in 2:46.9 (41,42, 42, 41). William raced her and lost dropping out with 50 meters to go - but he was already severely behind. I told him he could not just end the day on that note and needed to redeem himself, so he did another try and ran 2:52.9 with even splits. Stephen tried to get a 400 PR, but missed it by 0.2 running 82.8 splitting 42,40. I think the wind today was more unfriendly than it appeared.

Jacob helped me pace everything except Stephen's 400. Steve Ashbaker helped with William's redemption run as well. Then we ran a few more miles, and I ran with Jenny and Matthew in the evening.

Did 5x0.25 down the canyon (74.3, 76.4, 73.2, 72.0, 71.3), then ran a 3 mile tempo in 16:54.5 (5:30, 5:45, 5:39). The first mile in 5:30 felt easy, but then the legs felt tired and I had to push hard to keep the pace. Not sure if it was fatigue or changing winds/weather getting warmer.

Total of 15. Jenny did 10, Jacob 8, Joseph 6 (tight back), William 6, Stephen 5, Julia 5, Matthew 1, Mary 0.25.

Bonnie and Stephen got a record for 5 miles - 39:45. The course was uphill from the house to Canyon Glen Park with a small detour at the end to make it full 5 miles.

I did 4 miles down the canyon in 22:59.8 (5:46, 5:49, 5:48, 5:36). There was a slight headwind in parts.

Ran some in the morning, then went to the USATF Developmental Meet at Timpanogos. The highlight of the meet for us was Joseph outkicking me in 3000 with a PR. Results:

3000

Joseph 10:32.53
myself 10:33.44
Jacob 10:56.73
Jenny 11:47.69

800

William 2:47.27
Stephen 3:03.75
Matthew 3:38.28

Analysis/splits:

Conditions - 800 - pretty much perfect. 3000 - the wind started to pick up and was a factor - head on the back stretch, but was not disastrous. The temperature was perfect, though.

Joseph and myself - I opened in 81 and just barely caught up to the leader (Nate Hillhouse) after the first lap. Joseph had 83 and caught up to us soon after. Then three of us were together for the next three laps with Nate leading. I attempted to take the lead several times, but Nate would not let me. We had 2:46 (85) at 800, 3:28 at 1000, 4:11 at 1200 (85), then 4:53 at 1400 and 5:36 at 1600 (85). In the fifth lap Nate fell back, but Joseph was right on my tail. We had 6:18 at 1800 and 7:01 at 2000 (85). Then I let the pace slip and ran 44 for the next 200 - 7:45 with 800 to go. I was able to recover and speed up to 85 for the next 400 (9:10 with a lap to go). With 200 to go Joseph passed me. I was able to latch on, but he shifted gears again with 70 meters to go, and I could not find another gear and finished 0.91 seconds behind. There was some confusion at the finish as we were lapping some runners and they were in our way - so maybe we could have had a more vigorous kick if we could just not worry about it. But regardless it was a great performance for Joseph and I am very happy for him - he has been struggling a lot lately in workouts. I am glad he was able to find the strength to run well today.

Jacob for some reason did not have the confidence to go with us - even though he has run 10:38 in a time trial and was definitely capable of handling the starting pace. So he was stuck in a no man's land running without much focus and hit 1600 in 5:58. Then he realized that he was running awfully slow and sped up. His last 3 laps were 87, 86, 80. Split by 1500 he had around 5:36, 5:20. When he ran 10:38 in a time trial it was 5:14, 5:24. Regardless, even with this mishap, this is the fastest time he has ever run in a race - even though his previous fastest time was at a low altitude.

Jenny had a good performance - this is a near PR for her, but her PR was run at a lower altitude as well (2700 feet in Boise). She opened with a 96 lap, then sped up some and had 6:17 at 1600. So split by 1500 this is 5:54, 5:53.

800:

William followed Kenny Briggs and they both ran 77 for the first lap. Then they both crashed, but Kenny a bit less than William. So he ended up with 2:45.11 vs William's 2:47.27. With better pacing I think William would have run a PR, but I think the positive is that William found the guts to open in 77 knowing he had another lap left. In time trials I had a hard time getting him there in 80. So now we need to work on opening in 77 and not slowing down to 90 in the second lap.

Stephen opened in 90, and then was running in no man's land, so he just coasted in 93 for the second lap. We need to work on knowing how to make it hurt just the right way all the way, not just the first 200 meters - even if there is no one around.

Julia is having some health issued again. She her breathing at 8:00 pace is labored, her competitive drive went down. So she opened in 88, and then just could not move and finished in 3:06. She is taking an iron supplement, but she might still be low - so we are going to test her iron next week.

Matthew had an interesting race. Apparently Stephen had scared him with his stories of being disqualified at the nationals for getting out of his lane before it was time. This time, however, the kids were supposed to go to lane 1 as soon as they could, but Matthew - being only 5 years old - did not figure that out. Stubborn as he is, he ran the entire race in lane 4. So he actually ran 847 meters, and his time at 800 would have been 3:25 - still 4 seconds slower than his time trial PR, but still pretty good for his first track race.

Chad came to run with us. Jenny did 10, Joseph and Jacob 8, Julia 5, William 6, Stephen 5, Matthew 1.

Chad and I did a 4 mile tempo run down the canyon. We started earlier so we got some nice tailwind. We opened with 5:45, then Chad started pushing the pace and I followed - 5:39, 5:30. In the last mile Chad kept pushing it, but ran out of juice with 200 to go. I saw that if we kicked we would have 5:36 average for 4, so I went for it, and ended up with 22:22.8. Chad had 22:24.2. My last mile was 5:29, Chad's 5:31 or 5:30 high. I was happy that I was able to close with 10:59 2 miles.

When we sped up to 5:30 at first my body and mind grumbled, but then I remembered that this used to be easy, and thought - maybe it could be easy again?

Ran in the Corner Canyon track meet with the family today. The distance was supposed to be 1500, but ended up about 1485 due to misplaced start. Nevertheless, the times I think were fair as we had wind and it was warm.

Times:

Dad 4:51.41
Joseph 4:54.29
Jacob 5:00.12
William 5:28.32
Jenny 5:40.78 (more of a workout, she had sore hamstrings and held
back quite a bit opening in 92)
Stephen 6:03.49
Julia 6:05.75
Matthew 6:47.75

Also Chad ran 4:50.14 outkicking me on the home stretch and Bonnie
5:47.09 in her first track meet ever.

Joseph, Chad, and I were in the the same heat, Jacob was in a different heat. William raced Kenny Briggs, did great for the first two laps, then settled in the third, and did not have the energy to kick in the forth - 86, 84, then 90, and essentially that pace for the kick. Kenny ran 5:22.

My splits were 76, 80, 80, and then 78 pace for the kick. Chad and I were together until he kicked in the last 70 meters into the gear that I did not have. Joseph was with us the entire time, made a move with a lap to go, when he saw it was not working he just gave up - we had a talk about that afterwards. Jacob won his heat, but ended up doing a lot of front running. He opened in 78, then had a plop - 83, then tried to shift gears, but only found 81, and was running around 80 pace for the kick.

Bonnie ran 80, 96, 1:41, and around 96 pace for the kick.

Jenny had issues with hamstring soreness, so she took it very cautiously.

Julia improved some, I think - she is starting to climb out of the pit.

I ran 4 more with the kids at night, and 4 more by myself.
