Get my weekly mileage in the 35-40 range.
Long-Term Running Goals: My ultimate goal in running is to come as close to my potential as possible given complete lack of talent. It would be fantastic to break 3hrs in the marathon, but I don't know whether this is possible. My age is going to become a factor very soon, if not already. All I can do is try, train hard and smart, and hope for the best. Personal: I was born in Moscow, Russia in '68, where I started running sprint events in '83. I moved to the US (NYC area) in '91 and didn't run again till '96 when I discovered road racing scene. I was hooked after my first 5K race. I had another break in running from '01-'04 and decided to seriously get back into it in August of '05. I'm married and have 14 year old daughter. I have moved to London in August '06, will probably stay here for a few years. |
