Goal Type:

Marathon Finish

Running Accomplishments:

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.

2 miles outside BF. I had to hurry a bit to be back in time for Shark Week on the Discovery channel.  Happy Shark Week, everyone!

I swear it is Shark Week whenever we go on vacation... no, we aren't on vacation, but... oh- I need to go back to bed!

Have a great day! Take care of those feet. Do you run in 5 fingers?

I love shark week!

Official kick in the pants for low mileage, skipping a training day, and replacing the running time with a TV show.

Lybi, second the kick in the pants, run on the dreadmill if you must watch sharks eat the beached whales.

Stay Kool, without Greg, B of BS Rools out

Marion, I run barefooted--no shoes. Although, I think the 5 fingers I ordered months ago finally are on their way! Yea! I feel like I'm going to need to throw a party for these shoes when they come, I am so excited.

Kristina--who doesn't!

Sasha--Kick received.

Brent--pants are getting the message. :) Who the heck is Greg?

Defending Shark Week here- it rules! This week I learned there are sharks under the ice in the artic- who knew?
