50K - 7:10 (actual moving pace unknown) - Run Under The Stars 10 Hour Endurance Run.  6/12/10.  Ran on the same day as the Hatfield McCoy Marathon.

Short-Term Running Goals:

to continue to improve.  Would love to get the elusive BQ.  Ive been a consistent runner since 2006 but I truly didn't take training seriously until the fall of 2010.  Before that.. I pretty much relied on my athletic ability to just get me to the finish line of events.  Still truly haven't figured out the marathon distance.  Currently just spending time awaiting for my marathon training to begin in June.  Aiming for a strong fall Marathon PR.  We will see.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Have to finish NYC, Boston, Pikes Peak & Chicago.  After that would love a shot at Commrades and possibly a 100 miler.  Who wouldn't want a belt buckle.

Personal:

Married with two kids (9 & 5)

Marathon Maniac #2635  woo hoo!!

Isn't there a causeway or something?

Our challenge at work this week is # of flights of stairs climbed (2 points per flight) ... so I've been up and down the steps at home 50 times after each run this week ... it's my pre-cool-down activity.

Go find that bridge and run back and forth for an hour.

lol. Im going to pass on the bridge repeats although I like your All Black frame of mind. I always seem to see your comments just a bit late. Should have mixed up Tuesday and Thursdays workouts like you said and I would have been done. Oh well. Does my round of golf today count as cross training?

I can only imagine your family and pets reaction to the stair thingy!! Thats awesome!!
