Boston Qualifier

Running Accomplishments:

Completed First Marathon Deceber 09 (CIM)

5K pr 20:20

Short-Term Running Goals:

Working hard to qualify for Boston in December at the CIM in Sacramento.

Long-Term Running Goals:

After I qualify for Boston I think running will be my way to stay competitive and keep in shape, but who knows what might happen.  I have done several sprint triathlons and think about attempting an ironman a lot.  I have been a wrestler all my life as far back as  I can remeber now in my mid 40s I find running the best way to stay competitive and it is a great way to meet other people interested in many of the same things I am.

Personal:

 I am a 44 year old guy with 5 children who are all now in college except for my youngest Daughter who lives with me and started High school this year. I have a beautiful girlfriend who is 35 years old, she is totally into health and fitness and we both work in the medical field.

Took Daughter to school then went 5 in the wind. It was a good run wind pushed me home at a 7:30 pace, overall pace was 8:00/mile.

Plan on getting another 5 miles in tonight hope the wind calms down.

Got a massage this afternoon decided to skip evening run, will get a 10 miler in tomorrow.

I had a person who was going to bring me water at mile 6, 9 but somehow they got lost and I had to do entire run without water was able to sustain pace at 1 min. slower that my MP goal.

But felt pretty dry after run, lost 8 pounds of fluids before run weight was 156.4 and after was 148.2 thats during a night run when temps much cooler.

I think I am one of those people that sweat more than usuall.

While in Sacramento got a 5 mile run in near the Medical center. It did not feel good, think it has to do with stress, felt like I ran 10 miles and did not feel good the whole time I was running. Hope I get my Mo Jo back soon!

Good run while in San Francisco, ran from the Embarcadero area Fishermans Warf to Golden Gate, strong head wind to bridge then wind at my back for the 5 mile return. Overall pace was 8:40 also had lots of hills and awsome visual stimuli. Looking forward to the Chico 10 mile on Sat. Still dont know what pace I will run come race time but it should be fun.
