Short-Term Running Goals:

This year I am looking to race a bit more and hope to improve. I have started to train a bit differently using a more well rounded program. Including tempo and speed work (which up to this point I have slacked off on) Would like to be somewhere near the top of my A.G. it makes racing more fun.Also helping motivate people to become more active and enjoy getting out and enjoying all life has to offer.

 

 


 

Long-Term Running Goals:

have not really set long term goals just love the great benefits physically as well as mentally that have come with running and look to continue to grow and improve

 

Personal:

Married to an amazing woman who I get to enjoy living and loving life for all its worth. From our urban farm to exploring the backcountry. I have 2 boys who are about grown. My passion for running has not diminished over the years just evolved into an integral part of life like it always has been but a little different. Lucky for me Tiff puts up with my running obsession and doesn't complain too much.

did not sleep well or much warm night plain restless got up and race ready see what my body will be up for this morning not too warm out so feeling like a good race meeting up with everyone by the start line was great feeling good and relaxed .From the gun kept my mantra in my head running my chi inside of myself everything working together really well starting down the first grade was mindful to keep a good strong pace but dont get too fast for myself at the first of the race before i know i am at mile 3 good pacing fluid and comfortable swithching into machine mode letting my mind soar with the awesome scenery gorgeous sunrise and shear beauty of everything the race just flew by started to feel it getting into mile 9 but nothing i did not expect keep the pace flowing and steady pick it up the last two for a stronger finish what an amazing timefinished 39th over all and the reason for the 5/7 div finish was they had me listed in the 45-49 age group (5th place there) and looking at times in what should have been my group 40-44 would have been 7th not going to complain though finished with a new PR 1:31:18
