Running Accomplishments:

High school (in San Diego) I ran a 16:40 5k and a 4:33 mile.  Have run 11 marathons. 

PR - Ogden 2009 - 2:55:10

 

Haven't done a 5k or 10k or half in a long time.  I just enjoy doing my regular daily runs and then hittin' the Marathons.  I might slip in some shorter/faster races this year.

Short-Term Running Goals:

Drop some more weight (get down to 150),  keep Pr'ing, and try to stay injury free.  Get a 2:46:42 or better in a marathon - I wanna beat Lance's PR!!

Get out on more trails around the valley and enjoy the scenery.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Focus on marathons and possibly ultras? Keep healthy and lean.

Personal:

Married with 2.95 girls.

How are you doing? I haven't seen you on the trail in awhile. You are a brave soul doing 10 miles on the indoor track. That is too much going in circles for me. Do you switch directions every mile or so to avoid injuries?

I'm doing well, thanks. I haven't been on the trail for a long time. I'm not as die-hard as I thought I was! I'm either watching t.v. while on the treadmill, or running on the indoor track. (trying to do more of the latter). I can't switch directions as it is counter-clockwise only. I didn't even think of it affecting my mechanics and injuring me. Does that happen often? Thanks for the note, and good to see you running and healthy again! If I ever get tough, I'll see you on the trail.
