Successfully completed the first “official” race of the year
. Completed the 2008 Shamrock shuffle in 49 min and 46 seconds. That’s roughly a 10 min/mile pace. Hope the next one, will be better.

2005 Half Marathon
It’s been a while since I updated the site
. Wanted to give some updates on my running accomplishments for 2005. After finishing last years Lasalle Marathon, I thought that I could train on my own this year. BIG MISTAKE!!
. Unless you are really (and I mean REALLY) motivated, it is very difficult to train alone for a marathon. So my training was pretty bad this year. I did manage to finish the marathon though. Only 30 minutes longer than last year

Here is a picture from the 2005 Chicago Half Marathon, I ran as part of my training
