Short-Term Running Goals:

I have decided to follow Sasha's advice in his article "How to Qualify for Boston."  So this winter, I am working on my endurance by running six days a week.  I started by running three miles everyday and as long as I feel like going on Saturday (but never more than 3x my daily distance).  I am slowly trying to build my daily mileage to 10 miles per day.  I hope to get there by early next summer. 

Long-Term Running Goals:

To run until the day I die. To run a marathon under 3 hours. 

Personal:

I am married to my beautiful wife and I have three children.
