Roxbury Series - 5M | 7/8/2006 | Roxbury, CT | 0:32:56 | 7 | The hills are much tougher in Roxbury, compared to hills on Frye Island, which explains the 1 minute slower time here. | 5 | 6.587 | 0 | 32 | 56 | |

Roxbury Series - 6.4M | 8/5/2006 | Roxbury, CT | 0:43:05 | 3 | I started out slow, aiming for 6:30 miles, as the first half is
mostly down hill, and the second half is mostly up hill. Splits - 1mi - 6:33,
2mi - 6:34, 3mi - 6:46, 4mi - 6:12, 5mi - 7:03, 6mi - 7:13 I like this distance - just a bit longer than a 10K |

New Haven Road Race 20K | 9/4/2006 | New Haven, CT | 1:20:34 | 174 | Good weather / not hot, somewhat humid. I started too far back from the starting line - my chip time was 1:20:07. I was aiming for a 1:20:00 time, so I was close. I felt like stopping after the downhill through the park, around mile 11. The band at mile 12 got me re-energized for the last 0.4 mile. | 12.4 | 6.497 | 1 | 20 | 34 | |
Roxbury Series - 2.4M | 9/9/2006 | Roxbury, CT | 0:14:58 | 4 | Warm, sunny - steep hill up Chalbyes Rd. First mile in 5:59, last 1.4, including the hill: 8:59. | 2.4 | 6.236 | 0 | 14 | 58 | |
King Of The Hill - 5K | 9/14/2006 | Danbury, CT | 0:18:20 | 5 | 2nd in men 30-39 | PR! - Certified Course - my first time running below 6:00
min/mile pace for anything longer than 1 mile. Light rain, overcast - 6:00 PM Thursday race. First two miles were 5:50 each. Last 1.1 miles took 6:40. The fourth place finisher passed me on a short, steep up hill near the midpoint. I almost caught up to him on the long downhill finish but came up a couple seconds short. |

Roxbury Series - 3.55M | 9/16/2006 | Roxbury, CT | 0:21:54 | 2 | 65 degrees, sunny - kept up with winner of the race for 2 miles, then faded. M1 - 6:04, M2 - 5:52, M3 - 6:20, last half mile - 3:38 | 3.55 | 6.169 | 0 | 21 | 54 | |
Southbury Fall Classic 10K | 9/17/2006 | Southbury, CT | 0:39:23 | 11 | 3rd place male: 30-39 | I think 10K is my favorite distance, though this was only my 2nd official 10K race. There's enough time to get into a comfortably fast pace, but it's not long enough to bring on total exhaustion. First 4 miles in 6:35 pace, mile 5 was at 6:23 pace, mile 6 was at 5:37 pace (?) - I don't know if that's possible - it may be a mistake. It didn't feel like I was going that fast. | 6.2 | 6.352 | 0 | 39 | 23 |
Roxbury Series - 1M | 9/30/2006 | Roxbury, CT | 0:05:15 | 2 | This was my fastest mile ever… Note that the first half of the course is down hill, and the second half is flat. | 1 | 5.250 | 0 | 5 | 15 | |
Roxbury Series - 5M | 10/7/2006 | Roxbury, CT | 0:31:00 | 2 | Third second place finish at Roxbury in a row. I was in the lead for the first mile, but the winner caught up at mile 1, and he was almost 2 minutes faster than me by the end. At 1 mile, I looked at my watch and was surprised to see the time: 5:35 - much too fast… It was a new experience, the front running. I'll need to improve my pacing when there's nobody ahead of me. | 5 | 6.200 | 0 | 31 | 0 | |
Roxbury Series - 4.3M | 10/14/2006 | Roxbury, CT | 0:26:58 | 3 | A group of 6 - 8 runners stayed together at the front for the first (downhill) half of the race. Turning around and starting uphill, the field spread out. I was second from this point until about half a mile from the finish, where I was passed by last week's winner. | 4.3 | 6.271 | 0 | 26 | 58 | |
Mystic Country Marathon | 10/22/2006 | East Lyme, CT | 3:00:40 | 20 | I tried for an even pace of 6:52 minute miles, but running alone in the later miles of the race, I was unable to keep a steady pace. I'm very happy with this result for my first marathon. This qualifies me for Boston in '07. I've already signed up! | 26.2 | 6.896 | 3 | 0 | 40 | |
Roxbury Series - 3.95M | 10/28/2006 | Roxbury, CT | 0:25:32 | 1 | First Place Overall! | My first win at Roxbury - Pouring, cold rain and wind - Going up the steep "jeep trail" was an adventure. Fallen leaves covered rocks, mud and puddles. Only 21 runners at this race. | 3.95 | 6.464 | 0 | 25 | 32 |
Kent Pumpkin Run | 10/29/2006 | Kent, CT | 0:31:25 | 9 | 2nd place M 40-49 | The rain from yesterday had passed through, but it was cold and
very windy today. For some reason, 3rd mile was the slowest, although the big uphill was at the end of the 1st mile. M1 - 6:22 M2 - 6:13 M3 - 6:45 M4 - 6:00 M5 - 6:04 |

Pete McCardle Cross Country Classic 15K | 11/26/2006 | Bronx, NY | 1:01:59 | 25 | PR on the course, and for 15K, but did not run as well as I hoped - too many races this week (3 races in 4 days) | 9.3 | 6.665 | 1 | 1 | 59 | |
Roxbury Series - 2.4M | 12/2/2006 | Roxbury, CT | 0:16:31 | 11 | 2nd place in Roxbury Series Points (Men) | last regular race of the season - ran easy - recovering from too many races last week / marathon next week | 2.4 | 6.882 | 0 | 16 | 31 |

Norfolk Pub 10 Miler | 12/16/2006 | Norfolk, CT | 1:05:23 | 7 | 2nd place 40-44 AG | Very hilly throughout - ~40 degrees, windy. Top 4 were out of sight by the first mile,
battled with #5, #6 until the 5 mile mark or so. Held off quickly closing #8 in last quarter
