Prs:

1 mile:  6:31

5K:  23:37

Half Marathon: 2:04

My first post-high school 5K, in which I thought I was going to die

The first time I won my age division.  Yippee!

My first half marathon, in which I attack Sasha

The time I beat my high school PR for the 5K (as a 31 year-old mommy of 3!)

My first 5K barefooted

 

Short-Term Running Goals:

I'm just getting back into running after a long break to have my last child.  I would like to race some 10Ks, a half, and a marathon in the next 2 years.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Be the oldest woman to complete a marathon.  Yea!  But hopefully I will also complete some BEFORE I geezer up, like, before I'm 40 for sure.  I think it would be fun to dress up really strange for marathons, like impersonating celebrities and stuff.  Except I don't really like celebrities, as a rule, so maybe I'll have to stick to the age old question of ninja, or pirate.  I say ninja. *Hyah!*

Personal:

I am happily married to James W (Cool Runnings). We have 3 boys and 1 opinionated little girl.  I love reading and I'm also a news junkie.  I am a stinker.

1.2 on the treadmill at the gym.  I'm DONE waiting for it to stop raining.

followed by 15 min. on the stairmaster and a bunch of fast walking.

Then tonight I did Legs and BackX.  One legged wall sits...fluphst! (General sound of exhaustion with a little bit of defeat--I'll get it next time).  It 's pretty cool that you can get such a hard leg workout without a bunch of big machines. 

Oh, and let me go check...yippee!  I'm 48 tonight. 

1740 calories

I know I need more sleep than this but one of my boys was having asthma stuff last night.  Waddaya gonna do.

Me too! I think P90X brings out the big green rage monster in me. I was getting mad trying to do wall squats with my feet slipping out from beneath me. So then I went to the carpet and it was better 'til the one leggers. Then slip slip again, not to mention the big streak of slime down the wall.

what is P90X??? Is your little boy doing better?
