Running Accomplishments:

I was a much better runner in my 20's and 30's.  When I was 52 I had a 28.5 5K and a 58.5 10K, and I would like to surpass those times.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Run a 1/2 marathon.  I would actually love to run a full marathon, but am not sure if my body would break down with injuries training for one.  Update fall 2010: still no 1/2 marathon, but I did run all the way up city creek and back home (14 miles)  - absolutely gorgeous!!

Personal:

My name is Adele Kimbrough - I'm 58 and have been running (off and on) since I was 16.  My body is not well designed for speed, and I'm a bit arthritic, but I'm having fun trying to figure out just how fast I can be.  And this blog helps!

Dang - missed my goal by 4 seconds!

Evening run to city creek gate, then I detoured onto the trail and ran on it until it came out into picnic area 12.  Then I ran back home along the paved road.  I started running at 8:15 tonight, but need to start leaving earlier if I want to do this run because it was really dark running back out of the canyon.

Now I'm tired but I still have a bunch of stuff to do before going to bed - I'm glad I at least did my shoulder exercises before leaving on my run!  :)

Spooky dark canyon run!

Yea, I'm not scared of spooks on dark canopied covered trails, but I am scared of dark shadowy dogs-like shapes I see in the distance!
