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

10th anniversary dinner party the night before, perfect weather and a memory to last a life time.

 

However a bit out of sorts Monday morning, lucky its a holiday so no work.  Ran 6.5 miles on the TM, felt great but dizzy after the run.  Average was 630's.

 

Big week this week, lots of doubles, family is in Naples tomorrow until Sunday so that means long run on Sunday because I have to work.

Planned on a superset on the TM but had a lot to do etc and I knew I was running in the PM for my running club.

I decided to try and break 17 on the TM but it I came up short 17:07, almost a PB for a TM.  I have to get it right to 11 because it takes about 15 good seconds to get it to 5:30 ish pace. 

Ran 7 miles of all HILLS for the Running club, not fast but I felt like I could have run all night, it was hot but also windy so I did not find it that bad.

3.5 tonight on the TM, ran 3 miles at 635 pace then a cool down for .5.  Wanted to tire the legs more, I knew it would be a bit tough but I thought it was good to pound through some miles when usually I would not.

 

Ran the Beach Grove route today, beautiful day, 80 ish but not humid.

Legs were heavy the entire run but I got better on the back half.  Last 3 miles were 6:57, 6:49 and 6:31, 111 for the run.

Going to try and do something tonight.

3 MP pm

 

 

would have loved to run 10 easy tonight but I have a meeting about the race I am planning this September.

 

Today was intense from the start, started the tm right off the bat at 11 for 800 meters then took it down to 10.2, ended up with 29:07 for 5 miles.

 

Felt good.

Sometimes you just have those runs.  I did not know what I wanted to do but I did plan on running easy, I don't love to do the same route 2 times in one week so I ended up running the Tecumseh hill.  I ran the 1 mile loop that I make my running clinic run which is a great workout.  To my surprise the first mile loop was 6:45 and it just continued to flow, every loop was under 6:43 with really little effort.

Weather is about 80 degrees but not humid all all, great day. 

Had a lot of pleasant thoughts about how blessed I am in my life, gotta love those runs!

 

8.2 miles total 6:42 averag, 7.2 miles of continuous hills.
