About Me

My photo
I am 20 years old at Springfield College. I started Crossfit in the winter of 2008 and have went on and off with that and P90x. But since the summer of 2009 until summer of 2011 I did Crossfit then switched to Strength and Conditioning. I Played soccer lacrosse basketball and ran track throughout my life. I played lacrosse at Endicott but I was injured and did not play the entire season. Another passion is strength and conditioning which has changed my life for the better. My midterm goal is to compete in a powerlifting competition, run an ultra and run the Boston Marathon, and my ultimate long term goal is to become a Strength and Conditioning coach, a lacrosse coach, and to open my own Strength and Conditioning gym as well as break the record for bench press at 165lbs bw. Along with training for my goals I enjoy pushing my body to its limits and seeing what the human body is capable of by doing activities that require a lot of physical and mental aspects.

    I want to hit at least a marathon I am setting them pretty low because I really have no idea what I am capable of in this situation. Any suggestions?

    I would say a marathon is a great goal. You got six hours to play with. I think its a 3 mile loop course, so you figure you run conservative and get two loops in per hour (25 min each plus a few minutes at the aid station). That works out to 36 miles total. Now thats not accounting for fatigue, which will def happen. I'd say you will hit around 30 if I was betting man. Good luck.
