January 2013 |
I'm not even sure why I thought this was a good idea to write a blog about my stats. I'm hoping that putting my base or starting numbers out there will be additional motivation for me to push my training and provide great results. My plan is to update this every few months to show my progress. The stats will provide my personal speed and time records, as well as my body stats. This way the chart provides no where for me to hide. My progress good or bad will be up for all to see. My body has already changed considerably over my first 6 months of training. On the left is my "Rich Roll" photo (it's the same pose one of my racing heroes used for his book Finding Ultra, but that's another post!). I'm currently 38 years old and will be turning 39 in April. I feel as though with my current diet, training results and body stats I'm the healthiest I've ever been and in the best shape of my entire life.
Here are my stats current as of February 1, 2013:

You are fast and fit and all mine ;).
ReplyDeleteThere is so much I've learned already from you and I'm excited to document this journey with you. I'm glad you are into a less injury-related obsession now. Yes, OBSESSION!
man, you're much faster than me at the shorter distances.
ReplyDeletemy 5k is 23:06, but my 10km is 48:31 (i think 31), and my half is 1:49:41. you'll catch up, but i don't want that! i need to get better at my shorter races. my bay is 2:39:08! see ya at the race:)
Ok we need to do a half ironman relay. With my swimming, Scully's cycling and your running speed - we would kick ass!
ReplyDelete4% BODY FAT? Dude, you are my hero.
ReplyDeleteCool way to track all your results! You are fast as those short distances, just think what the longer ones will look like soon. I am impressed with the injury list, I thought mine was long but yours kicks ass :)
