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

G wore his garmin, I was FREE.  Next time he needs to leave it at home!

I think we were around 6:55 avg for the 7.4 miles.  Sunday afternoon runs are tough especially after cutting the grass, sunny and a unusual time for running.

2 weeks, time to taper.

800's today on the TM, have Elliot and Sadie.

.1 at 8.4 then 800 @ 10 repeated this 3 times with a .1 break @ 8.1, decided to run 3 800's @ 10 with no breaks to finish of a 5k.

3.1 = 19:07

then ran the last 2 800's @10 with the .1 break at 8.1 total time was 28:30 for 4.6 miles.

 

Felt controlled good confidence run.  Looking forward to Cleveland and then working on speed.

Ran 30 seconds @ 5.55 and 30 seconds @ 7.04 on the TM at the gym pretty easy workout but I can see 30 mins being a bit tough especially in the summer on a track.

Tough to not run but I know a rest will do more now than an easy 6 miles.  I have done 2 back to back speed workouts and I feel fresh.  Cut the grass today and have Julian's hockey practice where I can skate a little bit with the kids while coaching.

Tomorrow I am going to run 6-8 miles mimicking next weeks marathon.

 

Baby stoller and Willis the dog, walk turned into a little run.
