10k - 35:29 (TM)  36:46 won the race outright, Sept 08

5k - 16:59 August 09

Short-Term Running Goals:

Under 3 hours for a marathon.  This spring however I want to break 310 and qualify for Boston, I only need 315.  DID IT!! 312:05 - 309:48

Run a solid Boston Marathon and shoot for sub 3 fall 09, eventually want to run under 2:50

 

I want to break 36 mins in a 10 k race.

 

I want to break 17 mins in a 5 k if not lower.

 

Basically I want to see how far I can actually go in running, who knows.

Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to run as long as I can, it is life fuel.  I am a Chiropractor and it is a good example for my pts and also my family who runs also.

Most importantly I want to be the best I can be to my family.

 And yes run sub 3 fall 09.  run 103 at the CRIM, break 36 for a 10k race, break 17 for a 5k.  Oh ya, run a half one of these days and break 124. Did it 121 this summer

Personal:

Married with 3 children.  5 year old son named Julian, 2 year old Sadie and Elliot who is 7 months.  Life is busy but fun and I believe we are living it to the fullest, running helps me do this.

 

Live in Windsor Ontario, love to vacation in our condo in Naples Florida.

 

My wife and I are both Chiropractors

20 today, garmin was not working very well so I am not sure what to think.  I felt I was pretty quick but at mile 18 the garmin was counting backward but seemed to catch up later.  I ended up running more distance than G yet his garmin hit 20 before mine did.  I so close to ditching the garmin for long runs.

Total was 228:30 for 20 miles.

Two 5k repeats.

.25 warm up

5k - 20:02

800 recovery

5k - 20:01

cool down home.

 

First run was into the wind and the second the wind helped.  Bit of a stitch with a mile to go or would have run 19:30 I think.  All in all I am happy with this run because last time I did this before Chicago my injury happened, I was really scared today especially so soon to Cleveland and the long run on Sunday.

Crazy, crazy work day, could not run at lunch because I had a wellness talk I had to do for a company.  I saw over a 100 patients so I was pretty exhausted.  I ate crappy when I got home because there was no dinne ready, Sarah is in Florida and the nanny left me dry!!  So for some reason I got the urge at 10pm to go and run 3 miles before bed, slept well.

Wanted to leave the watch behind but somehow it found my wrist again.

114:06 - 7:15 avg.

Tried to pretend I was running a marathon therefore working on the mental game but I always seem to get ready to be done whatever the distance when I know I only have a mile left.  I did tell myself to not worry so much about the garmin because today I would look down at my watch and it would tell me I was going slow but I knew I was ok.  So I am starting to look at it less and less, only for my 3 mile splits.

 

Brian great job with the running!!

Rest day but had a window to sneak on the TM while Elliot was napping and Sadie was watching some tv. 

5K - 20:02  wore my flats.  Started at 8.5 for .7 then fooled around with 10 and 9 for the rest of the 5k.
