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!

I didn't have time for postrunning stretches today either.
Hooray for nice mornings for running! It was nice here this morning too.

Glad you had some nice morning running!
Argh! No stretching? That part of running is easy to rush through or gloss over!

Sometimes I think stretching is overrated,and at other times I wonder if I owe an injury to not stretching. hmmm
