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.

15 Miles.  Did a tempo run as long as I could go.  Started with .5 warmup, and did 10.50 on trail/road and averaged 6:31/mile for the 10.50.  4 mile cool down.  Felt good about the run.  Wore the heart rate monitor and it gradually climbed up to 178 at the end of the tempo.

Matt, that is a great tempo run. I think you are definitely in the neighborhood for running 3 hours at Boston.

It was my "Rhett wanabee" run. I was inspired by your run to head out and see where I'm at. I probably killed myself a little more than you did on your run though. I don't think I could've gone 10 ft. more if my life depended on it.
