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!!

Sometimes life throws you a curve ball.  Tonights 10 miler turned into a 7 miler.  Brody selected Cheeburger Cheeburger for his birthday dinner and dad had too many onion rings.  Poor decision on my part but oh well.. I will have to make up the 3 miles elsewhere during the week.  Life goes on.

Good call, he'll only turn 5 once.

Nice job getting back on schedule with the Wed 10 miler. Glad things are going well.

Did Matt run with you? I think I passed him near Deep Run Park on my way to football (around 6 PM).
