Back in January 2024 I wrote a Strava post outlining the goal times I hope to achieve in my running career.
In February 2024 I ran my 3rd sub 3 hour marathon, after an intense 7 week training cycle. After that I petered out a bit and didn’t do much for the rest of the year.
But I’m back now, in October of the year of our Lord 2025, and figured I’d post my goals here publicly as well.
Running Goals
| Event | Goal Time | Current PR |
|---|---|---|
| 400m | < 1:00 | 1:08 |
| 1 mile | < 5:00 | 5:15 |
| 5k | < 17 | 18:06 |
| 10k | < 35 | 37:40 |
| 10 mile | < 1 hour | N/A |
| The Warriors Run | < 1:05 | 1:11 |
| Half Marathon | < 1:20 | 1:29 |
| Full Marathon | < 2:50 | 2:55 |
I’ve also added the current personal record (PR) in actual races. I may have done faster in some a few years back but this is what I have to go on officially.
Some are more realistic than others (I had to resist the urge to put a 10 second 100m in there) but I’ll give it a good crack over the next year and beyond, and hopefully attain some, if not all, of these times.
Recent Times
The times above were set in the last number of years. I’m a bit off the pace now so figured I’d share recentish times to get a good idea of how far I am away at the moment.
| Event | Time | Date |
|---|---|---|
| 400m | 1:08 | July 2025 |
| 1 mile | 5:25 | August 2025 |
| 5k | 18:45 | September 2025 |
| Half Marathon | 1:26:56 | October 2025 |
| Full Marathon | 3:08 | July 2025 |
I’ll update this as I improve times and run more races.
