Finished two Big Sur Marathons (BSIM) in 1999 (3:59 I think, and I can't remember exactly what year!) and 2008 (4:25.28). Had knee problems before 2008 BSIM and so didn't train sufficiently - hoping to stay injury free for 2009 event.
95:23 in 2006 in Tilden Tough Ten (10 miles) in Berkeley, Calif.
Logan First Dam Run 2006 53 mins (can't remember exactly) - Have to take these things more seriously!
Short-Term Running Goals:
Break 3:45 in 2009 Big Sur Marathon and 3:30 in 2010.
Long-Term Running Goals:
Run at least 1 Marathon and 1 1/2 Marathon every year .
Personal:
Single; Trying to learn Spanish - listening to Spanish radio podcasts while running - dos parajos de un tiro!
Well, got side-swiped by a red air day alert which I wasn't expecting on a weekend - don't have time to spare today to go to Bear Lake and so the 60 mile week plan bites the dust.
I have decided that training for a spring marathon in Logan is really not practical, not until something gets done about the air quality, which doesn't seem to be on the horizon. The cold temps just eat your motivation too.
Scott - You're right - I don't mind the cold so much as the bad air. It really defeats the purpose to run when PM2.5 is above 45 like it is right now. Plus it really wears on you running the same streets day after day. I feel like I live on 3700N!
Ay ay ay que pena lo de la calidad del aire! Espero que mañana sea mejor.
Que tenga un buen dia amigo!
