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.

Ug. What an ugly run! My stomach was fighting with me the whole way. Really painful and nauseated. Several of my family members have kind of a stomach flu. If I continue to feel this yucky I won't be able to run tomorrow. Thanks for the encouragement yesterday though!

Oh my gosh! Have you guys seen the new sleep tracking thing? You just go to "User Options" and check a box. This is going to change my life! :) I know I'll be more responsible with all this accountability going on. Feel free to chastise if you don't see at least 8 in the night-time sleep box from now on!

Way to get out when you feel like crud! Hopefully it doesn't last long!
