A huge congratulations at WINNING your age group at the Boston Marathon (2:43 50-54)....An unfricken believable accomplishment....I'm totally speechless....well not totally :).
Back in 2007 John (Irunforbeer) and I had a common quest to break the 3 hour barrier at the San Diego Rock n Roll Marathon - with the common name and both fans of Dean Karnasas who was referred as Team Dean (a one man team) in some 200+ mile relay race he did all by himself --- we dubbed ourselves "Team John". Team John Failed that sub3 attempt as we both were not quite ready to bust thru but we have each chalked up our own victories and now the other half (Mr. Irunforbeer) has hit the pinnacle - I am so incredibly excited for your victory John.......Go Team John. (Of course I taught him everything he knows :) )...

Hey Dr Kayry,(chief of marathon training science dept.),
Thanks for the shout-out! It's been a pretty incredible journey since we ran San Diego just two short years ago. I do credit you with getting me hooked on the low HR training method along with all sort of other training tweaks.
Best of luck with your sfx recovery and getting back into high gear soon.
Go Team John!
Hey John....thanks for stopping by. You've been doing some amazing things. Pretty neat that you've taken up coaching now. I imagine that will be very rewarding to watch others improvements. I imagine it is also a numbers game - many fade away for the few that grasp on to it and go for it..
