I ran some of my toughest training runs with Jasper this summer in preparation for the ENDURrun. We ran at Elk/Beaver Lake (a 10k trail loop) where we were holding 3:50/km for a given period of time (my two runs with him were for 90 minutes and 2 hours - he did many more). Running with him worked well as Jasper was training for Ironman Canada and 3:50/km was his goal pace for the marathon.
Well, on the strength of a 2:48 marathon, Jasper won his first Ironman title this weekend! I am so proud of him and this amazing accomplishment. His dedication to his training, and the way he takes care of all the details (recovery, stretching, icing, nutrition, etc) is inspiring.
