Member Since: Dec 07, 2008 Gender: Male Goal Type: Local Elite Running Accomplishments: 10k - 34.40 , Half Marathon 1.18.23 , Marathon 2.45.56
Most recent events have been London Marathon (April '08) in 2.52 , Great Scottish Run - Half M in 1.20.02 and a personal disaster at New York marathon when I scraped in on 2.59 and a bit.In my defence arriving less than 48 hours pre-race with a -13 hour time shift really wasn't that smart. Short-Term Running Goals: To get Marathon time back below 2.50 .Hopefully I'll do this at London in 2009 but if not I'll try and find a race in Asia that fits the bill. Long-Term Running Goals: To run sub 3 hr marathons for as long as practical .Came very close to losing it in NYC but that was just a bad day at the office .........I hope. Personal: Born and bred in Scotland and living in Singapore .Married with 2 daughters (aged 10/12). Work wise I spend too much time on airplanes and that seriously affects training but thats OK at least I get to run all over the world.
Also a keen cyclist but a bad swimmer so I need to make do with duathlons.Won the Singapore Duathlon in 2008 (old man category) and may enter my first major bike race in 2009 . This depends on London Marathon and training options in general. |
