Review of 2011

What a year!  I would have never expected the results I obtained in such a short time.  For anyone who doesnt know, I started training in January 2011 with the expectations to finish a 5km in under 20 minutes.  Next thing you see - I am planning on running a half marathon and moving towards bigger races.  I have to account much of my success to greatest support group any aspiring amateur athlete can ask for.  My family, my girlfriend, and my friends have been there and constantly congratulate me on my success.  Thank you all!

My race times are all listed in the right side pane and I have to admit, I gained valuable experience through each race.  This year has taught me more about myself physically and mentally - I now know my limits and I can play within them safely!

I have to announce that I have won 1st place in my age group for the Somersault Championchip Challenge!  am very pleased with this and look forward to anyone who wishes to challenge my title next year ;)

Lastly, what does 2012 have in store for me?.... lets have a look:

Early May - Half Marathon
Late May - Full Marathon (under 3 hours - Boston Qualifier)
Mid June - Olympic Triathlon
June 24 - Half - Ironman

As you can see, once exams are done - my fun will just begin.

I want to say sorry for the lack of posts I have done since Sept.... School runs my life and I am going to start posting some of my papers and laboratory reports here so that you can all see the science behind exercise!

Train Hard. Train Smart.
