The Ottawa Marathon
posted 3 weeks agoWell, its mid. Feb. and what can I say I have kind of calmed down on the running as the days were shortened and it was fairly miserable to go for a run by the time I got home from work these past months. I have still been trying to get out for at least one decent run a week which I have been doing fairly consistently if I haven’t been snowboarding. Anyways yesterday I got out for a good 10 mile run which I haven’t done in a while. It was much slower than I could have done the middle of November but I still had a ton of energy when I was finished. It was great! Also the reason for a bit slower was that I got my dad our for it as well. He is a casual runner so usually nothing over 6 miles. This 10 mile run was actually the furthest he has ever run in his life. He’s in his early 50’s too! I’m so proud of him!
Anyways I have registered for the Ottawa Marathon which is May 30th. Its over 3 months away and I am already overly excited!! Hopefully I can beat my previous time in Seattle. I am know I CAN!
I’m also considering doing the P2A (Paris to Ancaster, a 60km) bike race mid. April. Gotta see how my cycling training works out. Should I do it again?
Haven’t ran in over a week. My legs feel like they ate about to explode with energy.

I am currently reading a biography on Terry Fox and this video is great commentary on this live, goal and achievements! Such an inspiration person.

Some Seattle Marathon pix of me running. My time was 3h53 which was not my goal pace, but apparently still respectable I am kept being told as I trained for only 2 months and this was my first marathon. Thanks to my coach Peter Glassford for all his help and guidance through the process. Already planning the next marathon. Both Toronto marathons and The NYC Marathon are a definite YES!
This morning is the morning of The Seattle Marathon. So excited and nervous… YIKES can’t believe its finally here. Just gotta RUN!
I hope i cross the finish line listening to this track, Signatune - Thomas Bangalter (DJ Mehdi mix). It would be the most epic thing ever!
