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!!

2.5 Warm up

Army 10 Miler - 1:08:40 (6:51, 6:46, 6:40, 6:40, 6:45, 6:45, 6:53, 6:51, 7:01, 6:46) 

3 Cool down

Well executed race..  felt pretty comfy most of the time and let it ease just a little on the mile 8 bridges.  Totally nasty snot rocket blowing from miles 7 onwards.  Stupid head cold.  Good enough for a PR by almost a minute.

Was going to run my final 20 today but decided against it with the cold and hard effort.

NYC bring it

5 recovery (9:30, 9:23, 9:42, 9:40, 9:42)

True dedication is getting your recovery done (during taper) after projectile tossing your cookies in the Ganghas Grill parking lot.  Dont ask... lol.  A combination of cooking my stir fry just a bit too spicy and a strong cough.

Still fighting the cold but back in the groove with 5 consecutive days running.  Training is pretty much wrapped up at this point.. the hay is in the barn.

Nice smooth and relaxed pacing.  Felt really strong and resisted the urge to run harder.  Rock and Roll all systems a go!!!
