BQ

Ohhhhhh to BQ. (That would be Boston Qualify.)

To be able to run the Boston Marathon, one has to qualify for it. My age range qualifying time is 3:50:59...which would equate to a 8:46m/pace. Which means I'd have to cut 18 minutes off of my time based on my first marathon.

I have been running faster with the cooler weather on my training runs. And I've been PRing (setting personal records) at the last two 5k races I've ran. I mean, at my last 5k race at the beginning December, I ran close to 50 seconds faster per minute than I did back in July...and 40 seconds faster per minute than I did in August, 10 seconds faster per minute than I did in November... The colder it gets, the faster I seem to run.

So it could be possible...

If this injury clears up and I continue my training, without any big hiccups - fingers crossed!, for the Martian Marathon in April...maybe...just maybe...

I'll BQ.

(and if not, I'll be happy just finishing!)
