| Location: Coon Rapids,MN,USA Member Since: Dec 09, 2010 Gender: Male Goal Type: Boston Qualifier Running Accomplishments: I have only run 2 marathon's in my life.... Grandma's in 2002 and Twin Cities in 2008. I just finished nothing spectacular.... This last year I got the running bug so here we are.... Let's see what happens! Short-Term Running Goals: I told myself that I was not going to run anymore Marathon's until I am 50.... Well, that didn't work! I have been talked into signing up for 35th running of Grandma's Marathon on June 18th, 2011... I have had running friends who have qualified for Boston and it has inspired me to see if I could qualify. So I guess we will see how it goes... Wish me luck..... Long-Term Running Goals: OK!! Maybe Boston should be my Long-term goal..... hmmm? Personal: I am happily Married, with a big dog and no children yet!!! |

| | I went to running room and ran with that group. We ended up doing 6 miles with doing lake Calhoun and Isle. The temp was about -7 or so at 8:30 when we ran... It was another sunny day which makes it so much better.... It took us 54:21 to run this route.... The run felt a little sluggish but when I was done it was all good....... just do it! J

Wow it really warmed up today it's in the 20's today... Downright Blamy!!! I had to many layers on today during our 4 mile run.... hope it's this warm this coming Saturday for the Frozen Half in St. Paul. Ran with Amanda, Jessica, Josh, Randy and Shawn today...

| | Wednesday run with Josh and Bridget was good... We ran Swede Hallow, they turned around at the 1.6 mile split. I continued on to the two mile turn around. I almost caught them on the way back but they finished a couple of minutes ahead of me. It took me 33:24 to the whole route. It took me 18 minutes or so on the way out but only 15 minutes on the way back, not bad huh.... I think that I'll be ready for Saturday's race..... Tomorrow nice and easy run..... Run! J

| | Race: |
Securian Winter Run Half Marathon (12 Miles) 01:32:23, Place overall: 268 | |
So this race was suppose to be a Half Marathon 13.1 but they messed up on the turn around point and we all turned around a mile or so early. This sucks!! I was on pace to PR too.... Oh Well... I actually did not feel good either.... I had been sick since Thursday and probably should not have run... I am paying for it now!! I feel like crap.. My head feels like it's going to blow up... For being sick I did feel good running... I guess the training runs helped and those hills helped I ran last weekend.... I started off running with Casey and Jessica but they were running a pace way to fast for me... I only stayed with them for the first couple of miles. Though I almost caught Jessica at the end she finished about 20 seconds ahead of me... I am happy and upset at the same time here... I usually don't stay upset to long so it will be all good!! I am overall happy!! its my choice.... There's another run tomorrow!!! Just do it! J
