My attempt to drop a marathon PR by 40 minutes and qualify for the Boston Marathon.

Friday 6/18 - 3.75 miles
I ran this one with my girlfriend at a comfortable pace. The run was supposed to be 3 miles and I often skip Fridays for a bike ride but I figured I needed some extra miles this week since I already missed a few workouts.
I'm 26 years old and recently relocated from New York City to Denver. I ran track in high school but never took it seriously. It started as an activity to keep me in shape for soccer but less than 2 years later I gave it up. After watching my older sister run the NYC Marathon in 2005 I was inspired to run again. I didn't really know what I was doing but I ran my first marathon in 2006. I said I'd never do another one after being in that much pain. However, nobody told me about the marathon addiction, 2 days later I was ready for more. Since then I ran NY twice and Philly once.
