Location: NB,CANADA Gender: Male Goal Type: Boston Qualifier Running Accomplishments: I have run 2 marathons in the last 3 years. In 2006, I ran Flanders Fields, Belgium with a time of 4:28. I was 53 years old at the time. In May 2008, I ran the Prague Marathon with a personal best of 3:54. Next year, I am contemplating the Saltzburg Marathon, Austria and hope to maybe have a qualifying time for the Boston Marathon. Currently, I'm running about 5 miles [8.5km] per day with a weekly long run of about 13km. Short-Term Running Goals: I wouldn't mind qualifying for Boston with a marathon run below 3:45. Long-Term Running Goals: As long as I'm healthy, I would like to try a marathon each year in a different part of the world. Personal: Married with 2 teenage girls. My wife runs and bikes and has completed 1 marathon in Lausanne, Switzerland in 2005. That is when I became first interested in running a marathon. I was there as a spectator and cheerleader. I hadn't been running for a number of years and started training. |
