Honestly, I need to get my PR's compiled. This is something I started a year ago and then lost my file. I have them on my old computer but need to dig them out. There is still more I need to find.
Short-Term Running Goals:
February 1st: Frosty 5k
February 22nd: Run for the Cookies
April 6th: Scranton Half Marathon (with Wes)
July 19th: New York Giants Run of Champions
October: Gettysburg Half Marathon
On top of some races, need to lose some weight to get to a good competition weight and also need to get rid of all my injuries. I would also like to drop my times
This year I would also like to hit 1000 miles during the year.
Long-Term Running Goals:
I think that eventually I would like to qualify for Boston. That is something that weighs on me but not as bad as not completing a marathon. Think I will take the approach of trying to complete a marathon within the next 3 years and then we will see after that.
I also want to keep dropping my times and stay competitive in age groups and get competitive overall.
Personal:
I am 29 years old, soon to be 30 and I have the best most supportive wife (Courtney) and we just had our first child (Isaac) in December. I ran track most of high school and one year of Cross Country. I then went to college where I ran for a year on the college team. Since then I have been trying to get myself back on track with my running, I run more days then not but I have not been able to have one year without some type of injury. I would really like to get back to being injury free and a competitive runner.
7x400's this morning. 1:30,1:25,1:22,1:23,1:20,1:19,1:18. Not to bad for a morning run in colder weather then usual. Pretty happy with the results.
Saucony Guide Miles: 1.75
Night Sleep Time: 0.00
Nap Time: 0.00
Total Sleep Time: 0.00
Weight: 0.00

Super job! Those are some nice splits. Do you do a short recovery or just run them straight through?
It is cooler today, isn't it? Yesterday was awesome here at about 78F as the high and 40% humidity. This morning it is 52F and 90% humidity. Feels kinda cold, but perfect for a bike ride in to work.
Keep up the great work! I'm looking forward to our performances in the fall.

Thanks! I take a short recovery when I was 5k training I was using 1:30 for a rest but today I used 1:00. I was freezing while trying to do the training but it was in the 50's. I think that the 78 is about what we are looking at today. I am excited for the fall races too!
