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!

Ran along the Bonneville Shoreline Trail from Terrace Hills until the intersection with the dry creek & limestone kiln trails.  Most of the trail was pretty good, but about 10% was really pretty muddy from the heavy snows earlier this week.  It was a warm and gorgeous day to be running - very nice to run in nature, even with the muddy spots!  Hope all my fellow bloggers had a wonderful day as well!

Oh, yucky mud! But it is worth it to finally get outside and off the darn treadmill, huh?? I can not wait for this darn snow to stop so we can have some spring! Do you think we have FINALLY seen the last of it?

i can't believe y'all are still having snow! that is nuts! if our climates could combine, we would have perfect running weather. it's sunny and 85ish degrees here... already too hot for me!

I hope that mud has tried up by now. That sounds like a great place to run.

That really does sound like a nice trail to run on.
