Local Elite

Running Accomplishments:

PRs:

Marathon -  2:45

Half: - 1:16

10k - 34:50

5k - 16:50

Short-Term Running Goals:

The goal is to continue to build consistency as I continue to build up mileage. I would like to build up to around 60-70 miles per week throughout this year while doing frequent shorter races (5k/10k) to continue to build speed and strength. 

Long-Term Running Goals:

My longterm goals are to break 2:30 in the Marathon and run sub 16 in the 5k. More to come.

I ran my 2:45 marathon with a highest weekly mileage of 51 miles.  I want to increase my mileage and give my training more of a commitment to reach my maximum potential.  

Personal:

My passions are for God, music and running.  I try to spend time in each every day.

Run to Vilas.  4x100m stride outs at 80-90% effort.  Then one burst up Edgewod Hill.  Run back home.  Cool Down, stretch, eat.  

Felt good to get some speed through the legs and lengthen the muscles.
