Short-Term Running Goals:

I have Just started running two years ago after a 30 year lay off. I am now 57 years old and hoping to run under 3:45 to qualify for the Boston Marathon. Looking forward to blogging with you and other runners.

Long-Term Running Goals:

I am a 32 year veteran of the Toronto Fire Department and hope to retire and travel next year . Running races in different cities is my intention.

Personal:

I am married with 6 children. My 16 year old son is a cross country runner who also wants to qualify for Boston by running with me in a Spring time marathon.

I have two dogs, a cat , a fish and a gorgeous supportive wife who will someday be a runner if she can get her foot problems sorted out.

Another gorgeous day. Ran easy with no aches or pain. 50 Min. run .  Hip soreness from the marathon is completely gone. Thinking of keeping my long runs to once per week with more 6-8 mile runs to keep a decent base until I ramp up  for a spring marathon.
