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.

Great yoga class today.  My legs are totally shaking.

A lady came up to me afterwards and commented on how well I did the moves BEFORE she asked me how far along I was.  I liked that.  It made me feel like really giving my all in every class.  Everybody is always staring at me anyways (or it seems that way) now that I am getting more obvious.  I'd rather they notice that I am doing the moves really well than that I look slightly larger every single class.  *Sigh*  I don't know why I struggle so much with feeling yucky about getting a huge tummy during pregnancy.  Where else is the baby going to go?  I'm a shrimpy person--it has to go out, and out, and OUT.

hey Lybi, good to see you again!! I bet you are the cutest preggers woman in the class!

Thanks, Bonnie. I think I'm usually the only prego in the class, unless you count that one dude with the beer-belly, whom I would be willing to bet is "virtually pregnant."
