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. |

Run for the Diamonds 2012 (9 Miles) 01:06:10, Place overall: 289 | |
Run for the Diamonds day! This is the third time I ran it and quite possibly the best feeling one. It was not my best time but the half marathon training set me up for success in the race. I dropped it into a low gear on the hill and coasted up at about an 8:30 or 8:45 pace (need to plug the Garmin in to check paces). After the big hill, I used the down hills to drop my time. I was seeing miles under 7 minutes, which is not something I cannot accomplish but the downhill helped significantly.
The weather was great, a little chilly but by the end of the race in the 50's. I think that if I was not dealing with the head cold or the recent calf injuries, I would have been much closer to my PR on the course. Not going to complain, great day and a great run. Hopefully, I can prepare for next year and get a PR. |
