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!

Okay, please, nobody laugh at my woefully short running distance today!! Still trying to figure out pacing, so I ran a quick mile downhill to the salt gate and a slow jog back up to my house. It was a nice morning for running; I wish could've gone further. The air seemed nice and spicy sweet after yesterday's thunderstorms!

Hey, you ran. That's nothing to laugh at.

Hi Adam. Yes, I ran in the 10K, but could've and should've ran faster!!
